This is a song for one of the godfather's of punk All the rock star bullshit he wasn't afraid to debunk Labeled himself a musical commie When in fact he was everyone's mommy
Gave the kids a good place to go And the unheard of bands somewhere to show Now he is dead for over five years Where are all the tributes for all your careers
NOFX for years made their way Laughing at what the political punks had to say Taking the piss out of everyone's anger and passion While being a shill for the warped sneaker tour fashion
Epitaph, you make us cry and laugh As you kick back and rake in the cash You're the chief magnate of the music money machine Yeah and you could say you fucked up the scene
Raking in fucking millions in dough What does the scene have to show? Shrewd business men, you made your big score For the bands charging thirty dollars at the door
Well you fat cats slap yourselves on the back Your greed and piggishness are documented facts You all think you're special and swell Real punks everywhere hope you burn in hell
So this song is for you Timmy you were true blue You could see where it was going, you already new Bad Religion hanging out with Britney Spears Pink and Rancid helping each others careers
Sell yourself out for better distribution It's an old line, a shitty solution Now you're part of the music conglomeration Selling your punk attitudes to the whole nation
So I am sorry if it all doesn't mean shit to me This music was supposed to set us free Not to buy houses up in the Hollywood Hills All you beautiful so talented people give me the chills
