I Don't Care (That You Wear Nike Air)
De Heideroosjes · Other Songs - De Heideroosjes
I don't give a damn about fashion but that's just what counts today
You only talk about trade-mark but there is a lot more stuff to say
I thought punkrock had some ideals, you know, struggle against the grain
I thought NO fashion was our fashion, I think that's something to maintain
Why should we care about shoes & trousers? If people die of starvation
Would it make me a better person if I drink 'The Choice
of a New Generation'?
I don't care, what kind of shoes you wear
I don't give a fuck, if you walk on Vans or Airwalk
I don't see much difference between Nike and Champion
But I do know that a Marxian is not the same as a Christian
I thought music was the main thing, not the color of my hair
Inliner vs skater? if you break your legs you'll get a wheel-chair
If we turn off the lights, we're all the same
So struggle on together, that's our only game
I don't care, that you your shoes are Nike Air!
