Descendents are a punk rock band from Lomita, California. They are one of the most influential punk bands ever and are known for being one of the early bands in the hardcore scene to sing about more personal topics reflective of their own lives. They were formed in 1978 by guitarist Frank Navetta, bassist Tony Lombardo and drummer Bill Stevenson. Shortly after forming they enlisted Milo Aukerman and made what started out a surf band into a full fledged punk unit. The Descendents diverged from their punk peers perhaps because of the Beach Boys influences and sang about topics that touched many young punk's lives like parents, food, girls and being rejected.

Shove all your problems under the rug
Then you wonder where the smell came from
Rotting out from the inside
This is your fucked up family
So many minds that nobody ever speaks
Rotting out from the inside...rotting out.
Nuclear family falling out
Winter forever in this house, they're
Rotting out from the inside
So put me out of my misery
If it ever happens to me, no
Rotting out from the inside...rotting out
Rotting out...Rotting out
Rotting out...Rotting out
Beat my head till I can speak
Not gonna let it happen to me, no
Rotting out...Rotting out
Rotting out...Rotting out
