about
It happened only once in a little town called Hollywood by Hollywood Magic. Shelley Smith, God rest her, introduced Matty O, to Andy Panik of The Rock City Angels & The Abusers. They formed a punk band, called Matt 7, with Hollywood Shredder AK i.e. Erik Ross, and Phil Christ of Wylde Cherry on drums. Andy Panik said "Hey Matt! We've gotta learn this song! Let's go!!!" We practiced our asses off 4 or 5 hours a day until we had it right, and recorded this early in 2001. Two decades later by the miracle of Facebook, Andy Radwan, a.k.a. Andy Blade, heard our version that is now here, and loved it so much he shared it on his wall!!! I Matty O, as Matt 7 am an adopted punk by two punk legends, and I give you, Matt 7's Outside View.
lyrics
A One! Two!
I'm standing out on the street,
Looking through the window,
Outside View!
I wanna come in 'cuz I got the blues,
But all that I am stuck with is an
Outside View!
Woe! I'm running around!
Woe! Got my feet on the ground!
Woe! We're here and now!
Nothing to give and nothing to gain!
A family sits as the TV plays,
I wanna come in from the rain,
Outside View!
A cop comes along and says,
"Enough of you!",
But I'll be back in time,
Outside View!
Woe! I'm running around!
Woe! I got my feet on the ground!
Woe! We're here and now!
Nothing to give and nothing, to gain!
