“Offended Yet?”

Song Lyrics:

[Verse] (Am – C – G – D)
Am C G D
Woke up this morning, with a thought in my head,
Am C G D
A controversial statement, just waiting to be said.
Am C G D
Oh don’t you worry, it’s not what you think,
Am C G D
I’m just a rebel, on the brink.

[Chorus] (E – G – D – A)
E G D A
Are you offended yet? Have I crossed the line?
E G D A
I’m just an offensive guy, in a world so fine.
E G D A
Saying what you won’t, crossing the red tape,
E G D A
I’m just an offensive guy, making your mouth gape.

Testimonial:
“Offensive Guy is not just a band, it’s a movement. It’s a voice of reason in a world that’s often too scared to say what needs to be said. Their music is refreshing, their lyrics thought-provoking. They’re the favorite band I didn’t know I needed. Despite their name, they’re far from offensive. They’re real, raw and incredibly talented.” – Hannah Matthews.
