We are You
Bullshit Detector Vol. 1 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We drink our coffee
At the Mug & Bean
We walk hand in hand
Down the street
Just you and me
Just you and me

We buy some ice-cream
At the corner cafรฉ
I wish we could do this everyday
Just you and me
Just you and me

I don't want the moon
Or the shooting stars
I just want you baby
Just as you are
You and me
We are magic

We do window-shopping to look for a ring
We go to church to seal this thing
Just you and me
Just you and me

Yeah

I don't want the moon
Or the shooting stars
I just want you baby
Just as you are
You and me
We are magic

Ribbons of burnt orange
Settle on the horizon
As we watch the sun go down
You holding me in your arms

I don't want the moon
Or the shooting stars
I just want you baby
Just as you are
You and me
We are magic

I don't want the moon
Or the shooting stars
I just want you baby
Just as you are




You and me
We are magic

So glad some uploaded this compilation LP! I finally became a proud owner a decade ago and prior to that I had ordered a cassette copy of this and BS 2 and played them both to the extreme since I loved it so much and wanted it all embedded in my brain!!! Once I was able to order the first one from discogs then I eventually got all 4 of em and probably love the first 2 the best but I truly love em all!! Some many great bands and obscure performances on these recordings and I am so very proud that they're all part of my vinyl collection!!! Thx CRASS and Crass Records!!

@rickweber7734

..I had this LP back, in, I'm thinking when I was about 16yrs old, so that would've been 1984-85, something like that, I really enjoyed it, and about that time, I had my own punk band, we made demo's of this type quality, on audio tape, and distributed it locally in the Cols, Ohio area, I still play guitar and write poetry and song lyrics, and occasionally jam with my friends..so, this is great to have uploaded on here, I appreciate it, thanks for putting on here, it's like a walk down memory lane, via vinyl time machine, HG Wells with spiky hair, attitude and unemployment..with dreams of changing the world, thru music and content..

@MyKharli

fair play m8ty

@chrisjennings7189

This was never about talent. It was about being young and rebellious and hating the system. It was about a sound that was unique to us, that made us stand out and be heard. I loved this, and now as a 56 year old man, I still do. "we don't need that shit, we got our own shit. Good shit, bad shit it's all shit but it's us, it's we, it's ourselves doing it... so do it, fucking do it!" OUR punk was the original. Our punk lead the way. We didn't change the world, but we left a mark.

@stueybhoy5630

Awesome. I was in The Sucks, track called three (it starts at about 30mins in) I think I've got the original pre recorded white label copy in my loft, may have to dig it out!

@actionsteed

Hey there Stuart !!!!!! Gosh,I would love to hear more of The Sucks material !!!!! The first time I heard this comp was in '83....well after the fact of course...I tried writing to all the bands involved with this comp with no luck....:( I do have a cassette compilation called "Composed Bananas" with The Sinyx and APF Brigade and assorted)..and to this day I love this material !!!!!!!!! I just wish that I could listen to some of these bands' old basement demos! I'm sure they are impossible to find,but if somebody has them,regardless of sound quality,I would love to hear them !!!!!!!!! Would love to hear more of The Sucks material definitely !!!!! Please let me know !!!!! Cheers Stuart !!!!! A Lifelong Fan......Chris from Detroit......
