Minor Threat Lyrics
We're no the first, I hope we're not the last
'Cause I know we're all ready for that adult crash
The time is so little, the time belongs to us
Why is everybody in such a fucking rush?
Make do with what you have
Take what you can get
Pay no mind to us
We're just a minor threat
We're just a minor threat
Early to finish, I was late to start
I might be an adult, but I'm a minor at heart
Go to college, be a man, what's the fucking deal?
It's not how old I am, it's how old I feel
Take your time
Try no to forget
We never will
We're just a minor threat
We're just a minor threat
'Cause I know we're all ready for that adult crash
The time is so little, the time belongs to us
Why is everybody in such a fucking rush?
Take what you can get
Pay no mind to us
We're just a minor threat
I might be an adult, but I'm a minor at heart
Go to college, be a man, what's the fucking deal?
It's not how old I am, it's how old I feel
Try no to forget
We never will
We're just a minor threat

minor threat kicks ass. complete discography is a great cd, you should all listen to it.
yes
I like this song alot:) Minor Threat is the best
I think it's about how teens are always in such a hurry to grow up. They want to move out before they're sixteen and all of that shit. I love the line "The time is so little; the time belongs to us. Why is everybody in such a fucking rush?" Why do people want all that responsibility that comes with marriage and kids and all of that stuff? I'm with Ian on this one; I'd rather keep out of that as long as possible.
Haha, this song owns.
The whole philosophy MacKaye and Jeff Nelson had with Dischord is summed up in the openign line: "We're not the first, I hope we're not the last".
roll down your windows and blare it on the stereo when you're driving near old, conservative people.
Conservatives can like Minor Threat too. In fact, in an age when government is trying to take more control of our lives, you'd think more punks would be conservative.

i like that they define their name. Its kinda funny because they are saying they aren't a big deal even though they have made huge impacts. But it is about being a kid at heart and living your life as a minor, weither that has to do with drinking or other wise. and "mattballenger" i heard two men in their 50's or so talking about and i quote "radical youth" it was quiet funny.
Truer Lyrics have never been shouted
Thats a promise
even though i think this has to do with growing up too fast, i also think this song is about how adult's give teens no credit. i am so sick of 18+ concerts. the only all ages ones are for crappy pop bands.
