Minor Threat - Look Back And Laugh Lyrics
I want to tell you a little story
Cause it makes me warm inside
It's about some friends growing up
And all the things they tried
They went for something more
I guess it was too much dreaming
Too much to hope for
One day something funny happened
But it scared the shit out of me
Their heads went in different directions
And their friendship ceased to be
One day something funny happened
Their heads went in different directions
And their friendship ceased to be
Someday we'll look back and laugh
I'm telling you I want it to work
I don't like being hurt
Something's not right inside
And I can't always put it aside
What can we do, what can we do?
Try
Try
Try
Try
I guess I make too much shit
Someday we'll look back and laugh
I'm telling you I want it to work
I don't like being hurt
Something's not right inside
And I can't always put it aside
What can we do, what can we do?
Try
Try
Try
Try
I guess I make too much shit
Someday we'll look back and laugh
Mr. Present, go away
Come back and fuck with us some other day
Mr. Feelings, run and hide
You have no right to what you feel inside
Motherfuckers, quick to kiss
Talk you shit, but don't fuck with this
And all I want to know, all I want to know
Am I holding on? Am I moving on?
What can we do, what can we do?
What can we do, what can we do?
What can we do, what can we do?
What can we do, what can we do?
Try
Try
Try
Try

Slc punk anyone?
a b s o u l u t l e y
55 years old, punk since that days. Never been a straight edge, i love alcohol but this is a band that gave a great influence to the punx all over the world. Totally, absolutely great
God bless Mr. Ian and also fuck it
I was there in 83. I always liked this one the most
Love this band and Fugazi. :P
Che bomba il finale.. Quando l hardcore si protrae oltre.......
สุดยอด
Hahahaha love this shit!
fucking diiiieeeeee!
first fugazi song lmfao?!?!,
This song is fukn sick as hell and fun as hell to play on instruments,but it follows,and little friend are so underrated.
Yeah it has a great buildup. Goes from lighthearted to serious real quick.
I had only heard this song on SLC Punk. I had listened to Minor Threat before but nothing major. Then I decided to look up their full discography and was in awe when I heard this song!
Vaffanculo stronzi
This record changed my life when I was 9 years old.
This cover is how I looked for 3 years times were better you can have all this Tec shit your all fake fucks wantabees
keep running and hiding behind anyone make yourself believe your in love your head is so fucked on drugs Allison you stop careing about everyone who matters like your kids and you forgot who's always got your back when your down and out one day you will have no one that's when you will wake up keep telling yourself all you need is him it fake Allison he's a looser w no job and he doesn't love you he has no one
Sounds like Joey Santiago of Pixies was listening.
TRY!!!!
Is there a list of the 25 users that chose to unlike this piece?
stringaddict who cares. This comment is in every video In one form or another
perfect song, perfect band I love the way the drums stutter as the guitar climbs and then kick back in with the vocals. Great rhythm. Fugazi was the same way.
My favorite song of any band ever.
Great song, one of their best. This proves that they can write slower, longer songs that hit just as hard as their classic Hardcore tracks.
Great song. An old time and all time fave.
i tell you i want it to work...
I read your comment right when the lyric hit!
RIP Bob.
14 people are wrong

Heroin Bob
@GBoone bob
Slc punk sucks, only poser like that shit. Who the gets a jock hawk, and the fuck who wears a fake hawk
sLC Punk!
MOTHER FUCKERS
+Robert Emmons Emmons ...quick to kiss....
12 idiots don't like this 😁😁😁😁
I think this is their best song. idk Why.
+bbomg02 This and Betray.
Filler and this do it for me.
Reversal of Man did a good cover of this.
I used to warm up with the initial riff when prepping for practice/shows on guitar. It's such a rewarding riff to play for some reason. I guess there honestly doesn't have to be one. ;)
was this song ever played live? its their best song
Minor Threat lasted about 3 years and yes, they played this song live.
I think that this songs goes about Ian and the band, the differences between the members and him, and how many times he fought to do what he thought was right.
Any other interpretation?
For me, it reminds me of when I was a teenager in rehab and had to leave all of my old friends behind to start a new life. It's definitely about friendship and loss though, so I'm sure it can be applied to many similar situations. Your interpretation makes more sense within the biographical context. Great song.
Their best song.
Terrible
just get out.
Don't you worry. I'm gone. My ears did nothing to deserve this.
Haha! your comment is two ears old.
(give minor threat another try. They can grow on you)
it's flat like the salt flats
Goosebumps on that closing verse. Dudes played some good rock n roll.
ZERO COLD WAR
PIG SLAUGHTERHOUSE
lizard kings part! sick vid tho!
kevin ducusin dude he's on deathwish, but I'm guessing you're a troll.
No this was in the video as a section just called "Friends," and the Liz was in it.
Alex VanKirk this was his song for his part in slaughterhouse before deathwish existed
be sober and play drums like this, youre gonna be happy
EASILY, one of the best Minor Threat songs... EVER! !!!SEMICOLON!!! I can't think of a punk rock song from my youth that better encapsulated everything. Here I am now, looking back and laughing. People say that hardcore died in '86, but the feeling will never die. If I ever have kids... this is what I'm going to play them when they go to high school.
Why do I always see arguments on hxc or sxe uploads? Can't we all just fucking get along and enjoy the music we came for.
SLC PUNK MAAAAN
oh yeah!
bong hits to this song are fucking sweet !!
Che Guevera that's ironic
Like a Sir!
I love drugs and alcohol. I also love this song.
Darn freakin' diggity!
Minor Threat is the shit!!
HxC all the fucking way!
exactly.
I hate people who have to point out what they hate in people so the world knows.
Fuk of
i'd rather pick at the government or things that are more serious, everyone makes mistakes so hating on people just turns you into a bigot.
how about they ban people who argue on fuckin youtube comments like a bunch of dumbasses. theyre just fuckin opinions and if you dont like someones opinion well dont say shit its not helping
eigendunk, wie heeft het niet, wie heeft het wel., eigendunk, een kutgezwel, onder een harnas van ijzer zit een hartje dat is wel wijzer, eigendunk, wie heeft het niet, eigendunk, wie heeft het wel, mensen denken, mensen praten... ze kunnen het niet laten.. originele text van Richard en Leon - 1992
Are you autistic?
Bestness.
Id be more offended, but im busy slamming h between my toes
Good girl!
minor threat were ahead of the game. influenced me as a kid 20+ yrs ago
@ChrizzSudaka .......... lamb of god? i dont hear any emo influence.
@TheMetalheadfromhell I'm talking, For example, about Lamb of God... I really don't know Hatebreed.
@ChrizzSudaka hatebreed is far from being mixed with emo. :P if you talk about deathcore band ok i know what you're talking about but if you talk about hatebreed, i dont understand what is emo with them.
@TheMetalheadfromhell I didn't mean they were emo... I'm just saying that new Hardcore, it's mixed with Emo...
@ChrizzSudaka emo? O_o wtf. i dont think hatebreed or sworn enemy are emo. they actually hate emo.
@lzymthrfckr I was gonna agree with you, then I farted and had to leave the room.
@ruben145 Hardcore now is mixed up with Metal, Trash and some Emo stuffs.. It's a shit..
this is origional hardcore. has more similarities with punk than todays hardcore.
slc punk! great movie
@Pinaki9536 Cool story, bro. I am better than you... end of story. sXe 'til death.
Swati Abrol haha, such edge. stfu and proceed eating fratboy schlong, trick.
SLC PUNK
@northblooduchc best comment about hardcore punk ever.
fuck hatebreed!
That was a pretty cool Dub moment from 1:05 - 1:09.
@shandelear Thats not what he meant -_-
First Minor Threat song I heard. also Hi Hi Hi me droogie
best minor threat ever
It's weird to see that Minor Threat has easily 13 songs that are part of the soundtrack of my life, i will love forever this band.
@DroogMonkey actually it is 3 seperate movements the satanists believe its not a social movement because they are useless mindless assholes.
sorry they just piss me off soo much
@DroogMonkey well since hardliners and krisna conc's were an offshoot of the bands created and inspired by ian m their taste in music is exceptional.
the satanists are just stupid shits that make all music look bad.
@TOXIC00L All of them sound like assholes with a poor taste in music
@buggaboom12 posting the videos doesn't help the situation any.
@DroogMonkey 1
the hardline happen to be better than most people and the purest form of straightedge.
2 hare consciousness straightedge are those who have flipped on to the hare kris bandwagon still alright people less violent/non and mostly like the first group.
@DroogMonkey yweah thats not how it works kid.
there are 3 types of straightedge.
and if you are going to pull that superiority complex bullshit remember you are a capitalist and as such people are above or below you unless you are a communist in which there are no classes above and below and everyone is equal.
I'm done voicing my opinions on Minor Threat videos.
@buggaboom12 well its not a movement just a healthy lifestyle decision.
@buggaboom12 implying instigating fights and talking shit on people is a movement. Call it what you want, but even Ian Mackaye hates you guys.
@buggaboom12 man how many damn times.
why not label yourself you are a human male american ex drug/alcohol abuser and a college grad so apparently you haven't taken offense to labeling yourself any of that..
my point being you take on millions of labels without thinking so "labeling yourself" is natural to the human experience.
@noogies the pixies were a grunge band.
I'm not a fan of the labeling system of Straight-edge, but I will say after 4 years of college (graduating in 3 weeks) I have had it with drinking and drugging. I wish I could say I do not see anything wrong with consuming substances and chemicals, but after 8 years of drinking and 3 years of pot, I do. Maybe one day I will look back and laugh, but right now I'm disgusted by it. There's a better, healthier way to live.
No Dislikes... I like it
@Fraeg yeah!
I'm 21, and i like the 80's hardcore more than the new scene emo crap, i think a lot of the Hardcore-Reality of those times still alive in some peoples mind, not in their look.
man it warms my heart to see after all these years MT are still being not only listened to but *discovered* as well.
38 years old and smiling
46 years old and still skateboarding to this album. Brute!!! Sick Original DC Hardcore.
i only have like 26 songs an they are pretty good stuff.great video 7/5 xD
