I gotta spend the day at the record store
'Cause it's the only place I can go to ignore
What I got
And listen to some punk rock
I don't have the cash for chemotherapy
But I got enough for the HOFX color EP
Oh yeah
I know one day I'll meet Fatty and we're gonna be bros
If I show up to enough Fat Wreck Chords shows
And I'll tell him that I'm dying
And I'm desperately trying
To see a dominatrix with reasonable rates
Should I fly to Sanctuary or just drive through the gates of East Oakland ?
I said: "That's kind of a random thing to say, ya hey!"
He said: "I'm Brad, I don't have very long
There's something very wrong
So I thought that you could maybe
Write a song about me."
I said: "Seriously?"
"I'm uninsured and it's unstoppable
The doctor told me it's inoperable
'Cause my GoFundMe page only raised 50 bucks."
Oh no
I think I gotta go
He told me the cancer was in his brain
So I invite him over to do some cocaine
With me - 'cause he never tried drugs before
I offered him a line and he said he's not sure
I said: "Didn't you just tell me that there isn't a cure?
So why not try
Some ecstasy and coke
If you're gonna croak!?
Some DMT and K
Will make you feel okay
Just for one night
You might feel like everything is gonna be all right."
Then he texted me every day
Until I finally said: "Okay
I'll write a song about you being sick
But like your life, it's gonna end too quick."

NOFX è una band punk rock statunitense formatasi a Los Angeles, in California, nel 1983. Considerati uno dei gruppi più influenti del genere, NOFX ha pubblicato oltre dieci album in studio, vendendo milioni di copie in tutto il mondo. Il loro sound è caratterizzato da un mix di melodie orecchiabili e testi ironici e satirici che affrontano temi come la politica, la società e la vita quotidiana. Tra i brani più famosi ci sono "Linoleum", "Don't Call Me White", "The Decline" e "Stickin' in My Eye". Il gruppo ha collaborato con artisti come Pennywise e Rancid, contribuendo a definire l'estetica e la cultura del punk rock negli anni '90. Dopo oltre quarant'anni di attività, NOFX si è sciolto nel 2024 con un ultimo concerto di commiato.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
