about

Everybody needs a war cry.

lyrics

I grew up birdlike
With a skin so thin
To a family squawking
Serious wisdom
When you got something
That you can't keep tinned
Momma says
Better out than in.
Better out than in.
Chorus:
Hiya Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw
Hiya Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw Kaw

Swallow your sharpness
One too many times
It'll come to peck you
From the gut inside
Venom is vicious
But that debris in your heart
Is like a vulture schooled in martial arts

[Chorus]
Dollhouse dawn, getting hammered on, dream no no no no no.
Fork in your chin with da folks laughing, cry no no no no no.
Cut through a snake with butter knife steak, that’s a no no no no no.
Dinosaur show with your chocolate beaux, no one said no no no no no.

[Chorus to the kaw kaw]

Happy Fangs is a war-painted and wiry rock trio. Rebecca brings her high-energy vocals. Mr. Cobra brings his grit-pop guitar. Jess brings her hard-hitting melodic beats. ... more

Exceptional punk music! I love sloppy punk, but this manages to be clean without without losing any energy at all (maybe even getting more of it in the process!). Can't recommend it enough and show them to everyone I know zacharypinkham
