Afternoon Aural: Pat Benatar
No Innocence Here...


We wanted to be Pat Benatar growing up. Actually, now that we think about it, we still want to be Pat Benatar. Seriously, who else could pull off that delicious eye-shadow?

While "Love is a Battlefield" certainly tops our list of Benatar-crooned favorites, we think "Invincible" suits The Youth Issue best, don't you agree?

For any of you who didn't grow up with this rocking bitch, we've included the lyrics below. Learn them - then you can sing this shit at karaoke and your young friends will think you're some sort of musical god. Unless they read this site, too. Then they'll know where you got it.

This bloody road remains a mystery This sudden darkness fills the air What are we waiting for? Won't anybody help us? What are we waiting for? We can't afford to be innocent Stand up and face the enemy It's a do or die situation We will be invincible

This shattered dream you cannot justify
We're gonna scream until were satisified
What are we running for?
We've got the right to be angry
What are we running for?
When there's no where we can run to anymore

We can't afford to be innocent
Stand up and face the enemy
It's a do or die situation
We will be invincible
And with the power of conviction
There is no sacrifice
It's a do or die situation
We will be invincible

Won't anybody help us?
What are we running for?
When there's no where, no where we can run to anymore

We can't afford to be innocent
Stand up and face the enemy
It's a do or die situation
We will be invincible
And with the power of conviction
There is no sacrifice
It's a do or die situation
We will be invincible

Rock on, motherfuckers!

Nobody can belt out a tune like Pat Benetar! How fitting that this song is off of the sound track from the Legend of Billy Jean.

Some of the younger readers who may not be familiar with Benetar's olding stuff are probably familiar with her latest project, Snow Patrol.

I didn't grow up with this song (curse my youth, if you want), but this is probably the best song in the world to sing when you've had too much Triple Sec and wanting to sing karaoke.
