    Story Behind the Song
    TLG's tribute to hardcore-metal-ska

    Lyrics
    The ska scene's not so fun anymore,
    I'm all skanked out and my fingers are sore.
    Down in the pit, they're all crying for more.
    Stuck in my car in a monster disguise,
    We spent all our money, cause we're not Pennywise
    Our shows just aren't what I'd advise
    Don't crowd surf, mosh, jump or stage dive

    w00t! w00t!

    It's a reel big crash and a waste of time.
    It means everything and nothing, look what happened last time.
    Yeah what we've got from the record store is a bunch of chumps who all want more.

    I should've seen it coming but it looked so far away.
    We should've been shooting stars but we'll never even have a name.
    We should've played emo, been another punk rawk band.
    Now what they all want to know is
    Why Do I Hate Matt

    I've got pain in my neck and debt on my hands.
    I played too many shows where nobody danced,
    But the undergroud scene says we still have a chance.
    Ska may catch on again someday
    We might play a show where we get paid
    It's up to you to make us trendy so now what can we say?
