Goldfinger

Goldfinger is an American punk rock/ska punk band that formed in 1994 in Los Angeles, California. Currently, the band is composed of vocalist/guitarist John Feldmann, guitarist Charlie Paulson, bassist Kelly LeMieux, and drummer Darrin Pfeiffer. The band is widely considered to have been a contributor to the movement of third-wave ska, a revitalization in the popularity of ska music which occurred during the mid-1990s. However, the releases of Open Your Eyes and Disconnection Notice, have been more commonly placed in the punk-rock genre. Apart from the band's music, Goldfinger is also noted for their political activism, particularly in the area of animal rights. more »

I see the lips move
But all I hear is shit
They act so natural
Faking crimes they don't admit

We need action on the street
Moving with our feet
It's time to shout out loud
It's time to start a movement
And there's no time like right now

It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight

Monkey see, monkey do
But all they see is death
Electrocuting, cut 'em up
Watch them take their last breath 

We need action on the street
Moving with our feet
It's time to shout out loud
It's time to start a movement
And there's no time like right now

It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight

I've held my breath so many times
When I'm praying for the tortured souls
But your souls they seem to be done for
Your bodies they've waged wars
So what gives them the right
To take your life from you
Why do they all play God?
Who said that is your job

It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up, stand up
It's time to
Get up, get up, get up
Why don't you
Stand up, stand up
It's time to start a fight

I've heard it's a rat race
And their racing 'till they're dead
(get up, get up, get up)
Your pesticides commit homicides
With their frozen:
I've heard it's a rat race
And their racing 'till they're dead
(get up, get up, get up)
Your pesticides commit homicides
With their frozen:

Now it's time to start a fight
