lyrics

Now you've 'grown up'
And your music sucks
You say that you're 'clean'
So you've left our scene
You no longer scream
Cuz they pay you to sing
You're living 'the dream'
Cuz you're a sellout

You slowed down your music and now youre a star
But compromised lyrics and forgot who you are
Strumming that $10,000 guitar
You've traded in the trains that you hopped for a big car
Now all of the hipsters are diggin your shit
And so many scenesters are riding your dick
The record execs say that you've got a hit
So youre eating well cuz youre the industry's trick

Chorus

When we were kids, you were so fuckin cool
Every day I'd wear your bands' merch to school
Now youre another rebel turned media tool
I wouldnt sneak into your show if you paid my ass too
Remember you told me it's DIY or die
But I seen your new record for a dub in best buy
Now you act like your anarchy phase was a lie
I wish you had ODed when you were still getting high!

So, some people change
You dont have to spange
Cuz you lost your real fans
To go work for the man
So buy into culture
Or get picked off by vultures
If you go there, I'm gone
I'll be carrion
Chorus

Wasnt it about the music, that was what got us into it
The talent, attitude, respect- for fame and fortune you would lose it
What kind of message does this send to all those kids that emulate you
All the bitches and the riches got to you so now you cannot relate
Your view became domesticated now you're everything you hated
Feeling old and jaded, cuz you're a sellout
