The song, written by Mike Watt, is about the relationship of singer D. Boon and Mike Watt as they played music together.[1] The song is subtitled "Part II" as an earlier Minutemen composition titled "History Lesson" was included on their 1981 release, The Punch Line.[2] Watt claims he wrote the song to humanize themselves.[1] {{cquote|People thought we were spacemen, but we were just Pedro corndogs – our band could be your life! You could be us, this could be you.[1]}}LyricsThe song was penned by Watt[1] and, as such, makes specific reference to Boon in the third person ("me and D. Boon, we played for years").[2] However, when the song was recorded, Boon performed lead vocals[1] and changed the third person references to Watt ("me and Mike Watt, we played for years").[2] The lyrics, as printed on the cover of Double Nickels on the Dime, contain the original references to Boon despite the difference in the actual recording. Additional references are made to E. Bloom of Blue Öyster Cult, Richard Hell of the Voidoids, Joe Strummer of The Clash, and John Doe of X, as well as to Bob Dylan. LegacyThe song features the iconic first line "Our band could be your life," was used as the title of the book Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground, 1981–1991 by Michael Azerrad.[3] The first stanza of the song also includes the line "Punk rock changed our lives." The band Sublime sampled this line for their song "Waiting for My Ruca" on their debut album 40oz. to Freedom.[4] Mat Honan of Gizmodo has claimed the DIY ethos of the band as epitomized in this song "is a hacker mindset. It is geek-forward."[5] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|last=Hendrickson|first=Tad|title=History Lesson — Part II|website=Rolling Stone|date=June 15, 2012|accessdate=April 22, 2018|url=https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/history-lesson-part-ii-238835/}} {{DEFAULTSORT:History Lesson - Part II}}{{punk-song-stub}}2. ^1 2 {{cite web|last=Thomas|first=Bryan|title=“History Lesson Part 1: Punk Rock in Los Angeles in 1984″: We jam econo with D.
