Back in the mid to late 80's, I used to skateboard a bit and listen to punk songs with my friends. I vaguely remember a punk group who sang about jerry falwell and also a song about nuns sleeping together. I can hear the lyrics in my head, but cant for the life of me, find the group online or anything. I don't think its Wasted Youth, aka, LA's Wasted Youth.

Any idea what I'm talking about? The final part of the song about Jerry Falwell went "You are not my God!" ..

GRR, this has been bothering me for a few days now.

D.R.I No Religion lyrics

Won't see me on my knees
Take my soul and save it, please
Ten hail Mary's for my sin
Paying heaven to get in
Got no money for your basket
A million times you can ask it
Find your bible far too odd
Ain't got time for your god
I've made my decision
Don't want your religion
No more church-bound prison
Or jerry falwell television
Don't forget, he's coming back
So put your dollars in the stack
The second coming's getting close
So pay up now and get the most
Form a line for all to pay
And do the same next Sunday
Step right up and clean your soul
Single file, young and old
I've made my decision
Don't want your religion
No more church-bound prison
Or jerry falwell television
Wash your brain, a strange obsession
You're an angel, post confession
Holy book tells right from wrong
Last donation, overdrawn

D.R.I No Religion lyrics

FYI, it was all Wasted Youth.. The songs I was thinking of were off the Album titled "Get Out of My Yard!"

I bought the Reagan's In cd from Amazon and it came with Get out of my Yard to my surprise. And the Jerry Fallwell song is called Tormented. The nun song is called Blind Nuns.

WOO HOO.

In 1986, my friends and I were 14 and skateboarders. We were into the scene, man. GBH, Dead Kennedys, DRI, Agnostic Front, Suicidal Tendencies, SOD, etc.

We were so cool... :D

That was the year I got into punk as well. A girl played me Suicidal's "Institutionalized" and I knew I found what was missing all my life :)

I'm looking for this song too, can't find it on youtube, but the band is called the Falwells' it's actually Jerry Falwell's nephew I believe.
Lol, "He's you, He's me, He's God, you'll see, He's Jerryyyyyy Falwell, your dick looks like a nazi helmut......

if anyone got a link to this song it would be greatly appreciated

Dead Kennedy's "Moral Majority" ?

You call yourself the Moral Majority
We call ourselves the people in the real world
Trying to rub us out, but we're going to survive
God must be dead if you're alive

You say, 'God loves you. Come and buy the Good News'
Then you buy the president and swimming pools
If Jesus don't save 'til we're lining your pockets
God must be dead if you're alive

Circus-tent con-men and Southern belle bunnies
Milk your emotions then they steal your money
It's the new dark ages with the fascists toting bibles
Cheap nostalgia for the Salem Witch Trials

Stodgy ayatollahs in their dobble-knit ties
Burn lots of books so they can feed you their lies
Masturbating with a flag and a bible
God must be dead if you're alive

Blow it out your ass, Jerry Falwell
Blow it out your ass, Jesse Helms
Blow it out your ass, Ronald Reagan
What's wrong with a mind of my own?

You don't want abortions, you want battered children
You want to ban the pill as if that solves the problem
Now you wanna force us to pray in school
God must be dead if you're such a fool

You're planning for a war with or without Iran
Building a police state with the Ku Klux Klan
Pissed at your neighbour? Don't bother to nag
Pick up the phone and turn in a i love you

Blow it out your ass, Terry Dolan
Blow it out your ass, Phyllis Schlafly
Ram it up your wise and beautiful woman, Anita
Cos God must be dead
If you're alive
God must be dead
If you're alive

I got into punk about at about 14 in 1997. Bad Religion, NOFX, Pennywise, etc. I still listen to pretty much the same music now at 32. :awe:
