Fuck You
D.O.A Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Say what you want, say we're lazy
Say we're just ?
Come across not too bright
We don't care what you say, fuck you!
We don't care what you say, fuck you!
We don't care what you say
We don't care what you say
We don't care what you say
Fuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you!
The lyrics to D.O.A.'s song "Tyrants Turn In Hell" are a rebellious call for non-conformity against societal norms and expectations. The first two lines serve as a response to being labeled as weird or crazy. The following lines suggest that the singer is aware of the judgment they face for not conforming to social norms such as going to school, working a 9-5 job, and so on. However, the singer is not ashamed of their actions and beliefs and are willing to stand up against those who judge them. The repetition of "We don't care what you say, fuck you!" shows the singer's defiance and unwillingness to conform to societal expectations.

I saw DOA in Vancouver when i was 18
then went back to fort gore for the after party
My stepmother's new husband rented a house to them
They gave me loads of merchandise
They was fairly big with me and my mates
To an 18 year old English punk it was fucking epic
Im 55 now still one of the best moments of my life
Thanks lads
I might not have the mohawk but the music never goes stale

That's an awesome story, awesome band.
I've never missed the old days as much as I do now, life was raw but alive.
