  • Sorry guys I didn't realize that I needed you so much
    I thought I'd get a new audience, I forgot that disco sucks
    I ended up with nobody and I started feeling dumb
    Maybe I should play the lead guitar and Pat should play the drums

    Take me back, back to the shack
    Back to the strat with the lightning strap
    Kick in the door, more hardcore
    Rockin out like it's '94
    Let's turn up the radio
    Turn off those stupid singing shows
    I know where we need to go
    Back to the shack

    I finally settled down with my girl and I made up with my dad
    I had to go and make a few mistakes so I could find out who I am
    I'm letting all of these feelings out even if it means I fail
    Cause this is what I was meant to do and you can't put that on sale

    Take me back, back to the shack
    Back to the strat with the lightning strap
    Kick in the door, more hardcore
    Rockin out like it's '94
    Let's turn up the radio
    Turn off those stupid singing shows
    I know where we need to go:
    Back to the shack

    We belong in the rock world
    There is so much left to do
    If we die in obscurity, oh well
    At least we raised some hell

    Take me back, back to the shack
    Back to the strat with the lightning strap
    Kick in the door, more hardcore
    Rockin out like it's '94
    Let's turn up the radio
    Turn off those stupid singing shows
    I know where we need to go
    Back to the shack

    Let's turn up the radio
    Turn off those stupid singing shows
    I know where we need to go
