“Out of Our Heads” by Dropkick Murphys
Are we gonna make it
Or is this how we’ll go
Are we gonna take it sitting down
Hell no!
We’re gonna cause a riot
We’re gonna rip it up
We’re gonna storm the gates
This place is going up!
Here we go, here we go
We’re out of our heads and its starting to show
Here we go, here we go
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
Are we gonna take it
Are we gonna let them know
Are we gonna let them bring us down
Hell no!
We’re gonna crash the party
Every night and every day
We’ve got ’em on the run
Will you follow?
Lead the way!
Here we go, here we go
We’re out of our heads and its starting to show
Here we go, here we go
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
Here we go, here we go
We’re out of our minds
And we’re letting you know
Here we go, here we go
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
Here we go, here we go
We’re out of our heads and its starting to show
Here we go, here we go
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
Here we go, here we go
We’re out of our minds
And we’re letting you know
Here we go, here we go
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
Here we go, here we go
We’re out of our heads and its starting to show
Here we go, here we go
The roof is on fire and it’s ready to blow
