Bad Brains - How Low Can A Punk Get? Lyrics
I didn't mean to rip off
I thought it was a get off in mine
I tried to make the scene off
The plan was doomed to set off on time
The time that I was wastin'
And now I pay the price
To make the sacrifice of a fool
It was on me
I chose not to be
Cheated on part of the thrill
Bargain was not fulfilled
Lost in a crazy scheme
That got strapped up in my dream
And now my times run out
Another D.O.A. can you help me?
How low can a punk get?
How low can a punk get?
How low can a punk get?
It was on me
I chose not to be
Cheated on part of the thrill
Bargain was not fulfilled
Lost in a crazy scheme
That got strapped up in my dream
And now my times run out
What's it all about
Another D.O.A. and I'm gone
How low can a punk get?
How low can a punk get?
How low can a punk get?
It was on me
I chose not to be
Cheated on part of the thrill
Bargain was not fulfilled
Lost in a crazy scheme
That got strapped up in my dream
And now my times run out
What's it all about

How low can a punk get? Punks not dead. How low can anyone get? Punks are the most friendly people

I tried to make the scene off.
The plan was doomed to set off on time.
The time that I was wastin' I spent on only chasin in the pits,
and now I pay the price to make the sacrifice of the fool.
I was on me.
I chose not to be,
cheated on part of the thrill, bargain was not fulfilled.
lost in a crazy scheme that got strapped up in my dream.
And now my times run out, what's it all about.

Chamoyie Thank you

Damn those are good lyrics
FUCK YES.
Wow. Have only heard the Rock for Light version. Badass
aye, pretty low...
Church 🐝™
Pretty fuckin' low, trust me. 1 of the greatest songs.
This is the Black Dots version. The RFL version smokes it.
Who's playin punk rock limbo tho
HARDCORE!!
this song transforms my mood
Use caution listening to this while driving ;)
I like how u copied a outher persons comment;)
It gets to my heart. Bad Brains rule.
This is not from the Rock For Light album... its from the early demo recordings as heard on Black Dots.
who cares??? awesome song, you suck mr. archive....
it's a completely different version
@Zack Brown yes it is an awesome song.
King Fillins this song rules and the cover rules haha
King Fillins
Isnt it "ror"?
ahhh ahhh can u help me how low can we go
ahhh ahhh can u help me
ahhh ahhh can u help me
awesome
I'd only heard the faster version before, which is great. His vocals on this are really good, though. And the rhythm during the verses is killer.
Ah ah ah ah ah WOO HOO!
+IbucusAlive Yeah!
and I'm gaaaaawnnwanah
Haha that’s my fav part
Ah ah ah mamamamam
HR IS A FUCKING GOD, SPONTANEOUSLY GENIUS
What album is this on? Its not on the bad brains 1st on.
This is on rock for light or black dots
Definitely prefer the vocals in this version
@Evan Schatz yeah me too, although i do like the speed of the other -- impressive!
This puts me in a really good mood.
This was recorded before all the ganja slowed 'em down!
Gutter Glitter more like before the fuckin mental problems slowed down HR
you clearly don't know Cannabis Corpse.
So they were always smoking green and 2, rock for light came out after this in 83, this recording was done in 79 and is on black dots. also considering rock for light came out in 83 its still a fast album. Hell the Ramones even tried to keep up for a few years and a couple albums
JDM
You mean heroin, right...
How low? GG Allin
That was rock
Darby Crash
GG fucks
Smh lol
Reminds me of the Loop Lounge in Passaic NJ!
Damn!
+dynamicduct haven't heard that place mentioned in years! Used to be a regular in the 80s when I lived in Union
Tool brought me here.
bad brains are the inventors of hardcore my friend i recomend you its medicine for the ears
@robertochuletin Just making the loop bro. Funkadelic brought me to BB to Fishbone to 24-7 Spyz to NIN to Tool to Soundgarden and so on and so on...
Best punk band EVER!
Fucking idiot.
Complete skullnumbery.
This is bad brains dumbfuck.
Ah ! aah! ah! ah! ah! WooHoo!!!!!
pollepel!!!
just if you are a conservative punker brother.
fucking awesome
oh they get it
I like that statement.
I think he also tops the 'How unique can a punk get'.
Cults were never a good thing...
this song makes me want to fucking freak out and start punching holes in the wall!!
I have a friend who did that, though I'm not sure that it was to this song in particular...
My eldest son did that and later reimbursed his friend who had held the party $400 to cover the repairs. We are only young once, Ariel Bowers.
Calm down Kyle!!
AH AH AH AH AH WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
Now this is true hardcore punk!
epic song..!!!!! HR is one totally awesome singer..
Chris Pfanner.

@jerry420884 i agree,the bad brains are one of the better punk/h.core bands to ever walk this planet.

@jacobladders -
Do yourself a favor, instead of claiming to be a Bad Brains fan, why don't you update your Bieber membership, turdlet. I was on the very streets that would've eaten you alive in '79, right around the 171-A Ratcage studios and you wouldn't have lasted 5 seconds with that ignoramus attitude protruding from your anus facialization. And every REAL BB fan has a well-worn copy of RFL (which is very much back in print), so b4 you open your yap to get it smashed in - THINK. doinkle.
@jacobladders
better dig up your crustified copy and play it again, dukes. No way you ever worked in a studio, so you wouldn't know anything about the process (I have).
@GROERsmokesWEED No, It's the cover from their debeut album, which was self titled
@entropyness and I should care because...
@entropyness exactly. heh.
I'm really glad they re-recorded this for Rock For Light - they were a lot more sophisticated by then. This track is only good for historical referencing.
@entropyness yeah, beacuse the rock for light version was sooo much better
@JayTheHelmetGuy and Iv'e gone so low
I'm a punk
@LittleNBigPro I really hope you're just trolling.
this is the song.
