Tim is explaining his life and his thoughts about what he thinks out loud in the voice of music. He was a loner when a teenager, hardly had any friends or any money and music was his only survival. You say Tim Armstrong is a sellout? Well, fuck you, because Tim is punk in his own righteous way, being the fact that he is himself. That's what makes you punk. Tim listens to and is friends with
the casualties, the
uk subs, and was with the ramones, hence that they played with them. Now shut your
gobs about the fact that he is or is not punk, or a sellout, hes doing what he loves doing, and is punk for doing so. Just because he's a sellout, does that make him 'not punk'? I think not.
