BRING BACK ZANY POP-PUNK SONG TITLES!!!

As much as I miss top 8s, neon merch, and shutter shades, perhaps the most tragic casualty of the TROOWAVE movement of 2012-present is the zany pop-punk song title. I mean, I’ve grown to like the music of FIREWORKS, THE STORY SO FAR, and even TRANSIT, but let’s be cereal: song titles like “And Now I’m Nothing” just don’t capture the feels of pop-punk like zany classics such as “Bout To Get Fruit Punched, Homie” and “Beatdown In The Key Of Happy.”

For those of you in pop-punk bands who are on the same page but need some ideas, below are a few suggestions by SYWH readers– please add your own in the comments!!

    sarge, what transit album/albums are you into? from my knowledge they have always been a boring emo band that got labeled pop punk somehow. but i got really into man overboard, so who knows maybe ill start liking transit :(

    Spending hours thinking up zany song titles was one of the funnest parts about being in a band, bummed that trend died. The one easycore song we ever made was “If Danger Was a Beautiful Woman, I Would Marry Her”. The one I suggested every time but never got used was “When it Comes to Havoc, Nobody Wreaks Like Me”. From Flapjack adn Phineas and Ferb respectively, cartoons are the best for this shit.

    “The jerk store called, they’re running out of you”

    Brilliant, made me realize so many Seinfeld quotes would work for this.

    “I’ve always been a stall man”
    “I don’t know what’s going on with the papayas.”
    “Bro’s no good, too ethnic.”
    “I’m miserable, so I might as well be comfortable”
    “Women don’t respect salad eaters”
    “She doesn’t deserve a baby shower, she deserves a baby monsoon”
    “I think she finds my stupidity charming”

    brb, starting seinfeldcore
