Listen up
Oh, take warning, take warning
Really gotta take warning
Stand by your friends, wrong or right
Can't call that justice when its just a stupid excuse to fight
Single out and attack
the ones who got no defense
You call that a new way of thinking
I call it regression to ignorance
Take warning, take warning
Take warning, take warning
There's a new generation coming
And we really gotta stand up to them
Take warning, take warning
Nobody's got a thing against you
Unless you've got something to prove
We don't need no new set of standards
We don't need a new set of rules
Heard all that shit before
About stomping out any difference
We say stand together!
not to fight just to exist
Take warning, take warning
Take warning, take warning
Intimidation coming
And we really gotta say no to them
Take warning, take warning
Enough is enough is enough
Why don't you just ease up
I saw another beat down last night, take warning
Who's the next to hit the ground tonight, take warning
Take warning
Take warning, take warning
Take warning, take warning
Intimidation coming
And we really gotta say no to them
Take warning, take warning
This band will forever remain classic and stand the test of time. Glad to see a new generation of people that appreciates their music.
And here we are 10 years later still bumping it
Sadly in today's world music fuckin sucks it hard only a handful of good bands and even fewer good songs left 😕
But I thought we had to stand up to the new generation?
Tim did some good work with The Transplants.
yo 11 years later, as my son would say, busssssssin! lol
This is why I love punk rock. short, sweet, and to the point.
I honestly think buddy Holly and the crickets were the VERY beginning of Punk and surf rock. Buddy's songs are under 4 mins, odd tempo changes.... just giving my opinion. it's sad I knew bout Rancid before OP IVY
@@PhillyChangSteak nah
Cause Rancid is STILL awesome!!!
A HS friend who has since passed showed this to me in 9th grade english, 2003. A true punk, through and through. RIP Axel
I loved this band happy everyone still listens ❤❤❤
This is one of those songs that I wish would never end...
I'ma die..
Same g song
Yes
Take warning: it's very catchy
I wish that too but you can't everything in life young folks I want you to learn that even thought u want to live forever you gotta end somewhere let me reach you how to build a bike I want to help you out but I'm just an old bard owl that needs help around the house so if you could help me like the grandson I should be blessed to have
One of the best underrated bands of all time
For those that don't know, Billy Joe was friends with tim and some of the guys from op ivy. After Rancid's first self titled album they asked Billy join and he had to respectfully decline, choosing to stick with Green Day and see where it goes. This is when Lars was recruited. Radio off of Rancid's "Let's Go" Album was co-written by Billy Joe, there's a demo of tims original version and it was like a totally different song.
Old news amigo. But thanks.
Wow whatta cool story
@@gabew6181 not me ya Ass Plug. News to me
Billie did even co write the song radio
@@krikke201 younger me knew it all lol. Check out the wiki for radio radio radio EP by rancid.
I brush my teeth to this shit
with whiskey and a cig burning
Cavities: Take Warning.
gasmaskboi19371945
O'Shea Gallagher Me too lol
+gasmaskboi19371945 Oh, you.
Operation Ivy was an American punk rock band from Berkeley, California formed in May 1987. The band was stylistically important as one of the first bands to mix the elements of hardcore punk and ska into a new amalgam called ska punk and was critical to the emergence of Lookout Records and the so-called "East Bay Sound."
I wonder what they think of UC Berkeley now since this song is pretty much against everything that liberal college has become.
Cool
Pretty sure this was about racist skinheads
Billie joe Armstrong cited this band as his first Major influence to get into punk music subsequently making him form Green Day and revitalizing the punk scene in America
@@preston1614 LOL who's to say they were college student??
2023 calling. Who is here with me? Rocking Op Ivy now 24 years. I was 7-9 years when they formed and played. Definitely the most important band in my life. I have a signed Jesse Michaels'painting of op ivy performing my bro got me for Christmas when i hit rock bottom with alcohol in 2018. Its my most favorite possession. Peace yall, hope this band changed your life like it has for me.
Wouldn't say this band changed my life but certainly helped point my musical taste in a new direction, first heard this band in early 2000s from a guy I met in high school from Chile, the guy was nuts and a real punk, my fondest memory of him was grabbing a 6ft footy dude in a headlock and jumping down 13 stairs with him and landing on him
First Operation Ivy song I'm listening to. This is some good and catchy shit
+Queen of Loserville (Karylle Alamon) A great band, maybe look at the Descendants next.
+Queen of Loserville (Karylle Alamon) great album give the whole album a listen then the formation of rancid lol mr tim armstrong
+Queen of Loserville (Karylle Alamon) The Nerve Agents, Bad Brains. It's worth it.
The whole ablum is incredible! I highly recommend checking it out. Or at least their songs Knowledge and The Crowd. My personal favorites from it along with this lol
Read your reply, checked out Decendants, love em, thank you kindly, and fuck you ;).
Still remember jamming out with friends covering this back in highschool. This was our compass and the standard and friking fun as hell to play. Love these fellas for putting this out there.
I just wanna thank Faith and Luck to make me discover this once obscure band, in an obscure town in 1992. My life has never been the same since.
check out common rider
Sick before rancid
My God this album is still amazing over two decades after it came out. LOVE it!
Actually now more than three decades and still rockin' with the Hedgecore Sound System!!!
Checking in from 2022. Hope you're still here and correct.
Pp
Yes Hedgecore I remember @Aaron Ihinger
3 decades my friend
I was a 16 yr old metalhead when my girlfriend at the time handed me this CD and I fell in love with it and played it on repeat for months. I don't know how they reach the soul but they do and always will and I'm grateful for it ...
soudtrack of my youth! Respect.
MrSuurmusi same bro, this was the first song I knew the words to
same
This song is so good to the soul. To fall back to songs like this this that aspire peace and awareness.
you call that a new way of thinking...i call it REGRESSION TO IGNORANCE!
Literally the line that sums up what political correctness is IMO
Exactly!!
@@metallistener340 dumbass lmfao. it's about racist punks
This will FOREVER be my #1 highschool anthem F****N Classic 😎🤘🤘🤘
Such a hypnotic beat. It expresses the human spirit.
Favorite punk/ska album ever. Great from front to back.
2019 and this will forever be my jam.
Came here from a comment on the song Gouge away by the Pixies. Thank you random stranger with great taste in music
GREAT band. ive been listening to the since I was 15 (20 now) and they never get old
Been listening to them for half your life now
@@ibgh0549 well he’s been listening for ~15 years now

Punk is a way of life. You either live it and bleed it, or you will never understand it..
Lagu andalan gw waktu maen lagu SKA sekarang Anak 2, edazzz lama beuuuttt....
Welcome to Jamaica 🇯🇲 Rude boiz!
✨️
Listening in 2021, looking back my teenage yrs. in the 90s I miss it. Not being young, just the “times” Was simple, even the nineties. Look at us now. Stupidity at its finest.
Old school. If I mention this band nobody has ever heard of them. Then I play them and they’re onboard.
Oh to be young again.
Jesse Michaels said yesterday (January 5th 2022) he wouldn't rule out a reunion as they was not really speaking before (not bad blood just each of them doing thier own thing) but are now. Lets hope😉.
Been my go to since i was like 12
Listen to it on 1.5 speed, thats some catchy shit.
incredible.
WHAT THIS IS AWSOME
TalkShit_GetHit I almost shit my pants
TalkShit_GetHit damn!! that IS awesome. thanx bro ;)
Any way to do that on an iPhone? :/
This band's music ages well!
Blessed I am, To be able to see this band live!
dang these guys are like the clash. glad I found them.
I'm 28. I dress comfortably (hoodies, jeans, tennis shoes, etc.). I still enjoy Dookie/Kerplunk (from Green Day), Rancid, NOFX, Descendants and labels like Fat Wreck, Epitaph, Hopeless, etc. and even listen to everything else from bluegrass, electronic, oldschool hip-hop and newschool indie hip-hop. None of that defines whether I'm "punk" or not, though. The fact that I love the scene, the people, and the music--that's what makes a punk. To quote The Minutemen: "Punk rock changed our lives."
digthatfunk not defining your self as punk is the most punk thing you can do
my favourite ever ska punk track - -it's beautiful and sounds like the clash
Mark Isaac listen to 1st wave ska, real ska not this shite
its ska punk, there is a difference
Mark Isaac the difference is, it's shit
ill-fated worldview I Adolf? Mate I'm a fucking Trojan Skinhead not a fuckin nazi cunt that listens to this shit, 1st wave 2nd wave ska is best this is just cringy American shite
SkinheadBMX 2003 I don't know what a Trojan skinhead is...just don't like racism, I live in America, the melting pot of culture is be a fool to think otherwise. so please excuse the insult, I thought skinheads are well skinheads, having never taken the time to learn the difference.
I remember when my brother showed me this band and a bunch more and I was so happy that he did it was when I was 10 and it's gooooood mussacc
A girl died of laughter of me skanking
+SamuraiTacos a girl said she liked ska and I was like "OP IVY" and she was like "who?" so basically same thing
ha ha lol
RIP random girl; that means you were doing it right.
ha ha yes sadly we didn't last long as a couple some day ill find my rude girl or a gf lol im a nerd
When a guy can skank, that's hot asf. Wtf was with that girl
One of my favorite songs growing up glad to hear
citizen fish operation ivy and choking victim ones of the best bands ever
Mr g great teacher thumbs up
this always just slams a smile on my face, nostalgia vibes are something else
These lyrics are words to live by.
I like how all the comments on every punk video are just arguments.
I love punk music and all, but punks and the internet don't mix.
It's quite alright
Still rockin' in 2019.
how is this not 1 million + views.... awesome album.
It has 1.6 million now
reminds me of freshman year :) great times, great track, great band man
this my shit!! love op ivy!!
This song stays timeless
@Simonkingston182 Yes, he was "Lint" Tim and Matt were both in Op Ivy
great music defies the limits of a genre. operation ivy is one of them. plus they had something to say with the lyrics. needless to say I started skating in the mid 80's and still do some not that it matters to anybody but me and recently to some children 1/4 of my age who for some strange reason liked what they saw in my skating and started skating. very humbling for sure
Still relevant today. The world will always have its bad guys.
Listening in 2023
Man OLD SCHOOL!!!! LOVE it!!!! Op Ivy was before Rancid, and Op Ivy is more ska than anything mixed with a lil bit of punk but this is some good stuff!!!!! This was 80's-90's punk/ska.... not that hardcore crap now that's metal....
Some kid from highschool recommended me these guys way back then. Wonder where he's at now
The best words.
Dat California punk scene in the 80's was huge. So many great bands came out of there.
Desde chilito escucho este tema 98 y 2000
Take warning 2021.
Operation ivy still onea the coolest punk bands 👍
i see a lot of the clash in this
@Greg509 hey!! im young and love all of the bands you mentioned! i also love emo, screamo, hardcore, post-hardcore, goth-rock, punk, ska-punk, and TONS more genres. THANK YOU for making a point! op ivy forever!!!
Who's here 2024 😊
Just as relevant as it ever was. Im glad bands like this helped mold my social views. Im glad I looked up to those who believed in unity and goodness. At 38 I see so many of my piers who hgave turned to the darkside and its depressing.
2022 and still listening...just fun.
Thanks for being part of ma throwback yaaaaa
His newest band is named Classics of Love, taken from the Common Rider song of course. They've got a great sound!
@CVcivilrights (part 2) movement in europe. Those bands were signed to a label called 2-tone records, and the genre became 2-tone. Later, in the early 80s, bands like the toasters, bosstones, and others 80's ska bands made new ska music, based of reggae and 2-tone. many bands copied them and that became the third wave. Ska is like the chicken, and reggae is like the egg. if the egg came first, nothing could have raised the baby. Ska was first.
rocksteady also came between ska and reggae, js.
great tune
Best Alternative-Indie song ever!!!
ska*
My sister said I was a loser because I listen to Op Ivy. Let's just say she can't count to three anymore.
Im one of the only young teens Who Still enjoys Operation ivy,Citizenfish and Subhumans.. one of my friends said she likes punk and has never heard of Any think like Subhumans or anything.. i knew it was strange at first then i showed her these bands and said she didn't like these bands and said Asking Alexandra was punk UGHH and now People think this is crap and like to hear noises made out of a Computer and say they have talent -_- Operation Ivy forever!
I still love this song.
I never understood people who argue over if a certain band is good or if they suck. Listen to what you enjoy and let everyone else do the same. Simple. Green Day started out as punk, they may or may not still be called punk but it doesn't matter to me. I'm not asking myself if a band is punk or not I'm asking myself if their music is enjoyable.
This is exactly what we are dealing with, in this moment, #TAKEWARNING
For real
Op Ivy was Green Day's biggest influence. Can't remember who, but someone from Op Ivy did the artwork for Green Day's "1039 Smoothed Out/Slappy Hours."
love it
Here in 2022☘️ still amazing
Wow
So good.
I Love this song.
actually ive been listening to both for more than a decade;
you are right and ill admit i was wrong, because i meant to say social d and not black flag.
Anyway, op ivy is still a quasi-hardcore punk band and i think they would at least say black flag was an inspiration.
But i am right about jesse stating he was going for a clash/social d sound
i just got the latter confused with black flag.
To kawalek ktory budzi wspomnienia ..
piekne
Ohh Lint...how I love everything you put out...wish there was more put out by these guys though... it's just one of those albums you can listen to with out skipping one track
That's how you listen to a album man
