"Well I know you can't work in fast food all your life
But don't sign that paper tonight,"
She said, but it's too late.
And I don't remember what I read
Don't remember what they said
I guess it doesn't matter
I guess it doesn't matter anymore
'Cause you're gonna go to the record store
You're gonna give 'em all your money
The radio plays what they want you to hear
They tell me it's cool
I just don't believe it
Sell out with me, oh yeah
Sell out with me tonight
The record company's only give me lots of money
And everything's gonna be
Alright
No more flippin' burgers
Puttin up my silly hat
You know I don't want that no more
And I didnt ask when we get paid
Quit my day job anyway
I guess it doesn't matter
Guess it doesn't matter anymore
'Cause you're gonna go to the record store
You're gonna give 'em all your money
The radio plays what they want you to hear
They tell me it's cool
I just don't believe it
Sell out with me, oh yeah
Sell out with me tonight
The record company's only give me lots of money
And everything's gonna be
And I don't think it'll be so bad
And I know it won't be so bad
'Cause the man said that's the way it is
And the man said,
"It don't get better than that."
No, no, no
So I signed on to the record company
They said they're gonna gimme lots of money
If I play what they want you to hear
They tell me it's cool
and I should believe it
Sell out with me, oh yeah
Sell out with me tonight
The record company's only give me lots of money
And everything's gonna be
Alright
Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
The record company
Is gonna make everything alright
"Baby don't you sign that paper tonight," she said,
But I can't work in fast food all my life.

Hmmm ... I thought it was the Mighty Mighty Bosstones too. Guess I fit in the dummy category as well!
Ha, very nice Bill!
I loves me some Reel Big Fish. They an especially awesome cover of Duran Duran's Hungry Like the Wolf.
nice CD cover hahhahahaha
fun tune!
but the comparison to the bosstones is about as intelligent as comparing every raggae tune to bob marley.
Funny, a little more relevant of a song now, in addition to be a bit of ska in the rotation.
Another reminder of how deadly late 90s ska was.

Yes please, this is not good enough to be played on a carnival for deaf monkeys...not rock, not electic and definitely not intelligent..

I thought this was something by Save Ferris when it started. Not bad.
Let\'s see if Bill follows this with Tom Petty\'s Last DJ...
Ska on RP. I love it!
More SKA Please!
Thank you for the diversity on RP. A little ska to pick up the beat and mood is great. Too bad that so many people think that if it is popular on commercial radio that it must be bad.
These guys put on a great show! I used to see them back when I lived in Huntington Beach. Quite a sensation, and my only live fix for some good ole big Mighty Might Bosstones sound.
Good hard ska!
