Da Strike Lyrics

You strike get pissed that is just the way it is
use your nose to the melancholy funk sound
we are just a couple of local bowlers hangin' out tonight
leaving all the girls behind

So what's a girl compared to a perfect game
I guess a lot if you find the right one
if I had to choose between a bowl and you
I'm not tellin you you're taiking it the wrong way

I love the feelin' that I get when I strike
that's the only time I feel alive
don't need you baby just need to strike
I love the feeling I get when I strike

You are in trance when you slick into the area
you pass the sa when you're taking of your pumas
the way we bowl is cleaner then the others styles
it´s'pro but they say we're doing it the wrong way

So I guess you must be crazy to be bowling like we do
it's cool we're doing it our own way
no girls just the rude boys from the south kickin' it slickin' it trickin'it again

Yes that's right bowling is allright, the only time I feel alive
is when I'm hanging at the A-house
yes, that's right, pass me those shoes
I'm ready for the perfect game so watch me shoot

If you get upset and don't understand it's quite allright
just follow your instincts physical activity is the way to free your mind
so get on your feet and bowl to the funky beat

First let me say that Millencolin is one of my favorite bands. I have all their albums and can sing along to nearly every song... but they have some of the WORST lyrics I have ever heard! THIS SONG IS ABOUT BOWLING! I-i-i-it's about going bowling and having a lot of fun... punk bands aren't supposed to have good wholesome fun for the whole family! "Bowl to the funky beat"? I've tried to bowl to a funky beat and was almost arrested for lewd conduct...

Berkowitz, I know everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but you really crossed the line with your post. I'm not a huge fan of this song myself, but I love MC, and have for a long time. It boggles my brain that a fan as big as you claim to be could completely miss the point of what they are about. Do you not pay attention to the lyrics of their songs? When Nikola cries that he doesn't need "you or your crew to tell [me] what you think or do" or when he says he "won't waste [my] time fitting in" were you just not paying attention. People like you who claim that punks bands HAVE to act in a certain way, and that they CAN'T have fun is ludicrous. What's so cool about the Swedish Monkeys is that they DO have fun, act up, and be themselves. They don't need to be your typical bad-@$$ punk group to get by, and you as a self-proclaimed MC fan should know and understand that. Sorry, but that's just the way it is. So instead of saying Da Strike has the worst lyrics ever, you should be saying that you have the worst attention span ever.

LOL calm down buddy. I know this is years old, but come on...I hope you read this and look back on what a snapcase you've been for no real reason at all...

I honestly laughed-out-loud in derision. "...crossed the line with your post."? Haha...

THis song kicks ass. They made it back when they were kind of a local band here in Örebro.. Rockss.

This might be late and not needed but i'm gonna have to say that Millencolin is a band that just wants to have fun and i love this song...I mean they don't have to have all their songs about something. Just let them be great and do what they do best... Make and play music! Damn i love Millencolin

Millencolin is my favorite band and I happen to love this song. One of the greatest things about Nikola (when he writes the lyrics) is that he writes about what matters to HIM. He's not concerned about what people are going to think. Most people know that MC are huge fans of bowling and this song shows that.

berkowitz, music in general isnt about the style or trend, its about what u feel and u put it on paper, not only feel but things u want listeners to know, this song is great

How do their lyrics suck? I think they write some of the best lyrics in punk music. Sure, there's a language barrier and you kind of tell sometimes, but their lyrics always hit home for me

if your lonely if yout happy feeling swell or feeling blue they might have the tune for you
