The Rebel Black Dot Song o' Today: SKAfter Party

Reel Big Fish, "Last Show" from We're Not Happy 'til You're Not Happy (The Last Angry Rude Boy)

Skammentary: Apropos of nothing.
"This is the last show I will ever play with you,
This is the end of what you put me through!
The last show I will ever play with you,
It's the end of what we do!

"I don't want fame,
I don't want money,
I just want to have fun again, and
I don't want girls,
No backstage parties,
I just want to feel like we're friends, and—

"I think I learned my lesson,
I think I figured this whole thing out,
This is a fine profession,
But it's no fun, so I'm done.

"This is the last show I will ever play with you,
This is the end of what you put me through!
The last show I will ever play with you,
It's the end of what we do!

"I never thought I would hate music,
I never thought I would hate you, yeah!
And every day this feels more like a job I don't even want to do.
Well, I think I've learned my lesson:
I'll never follow my dreams again,
I won't waste any more of your time,
So kiss my ass! I won't be back.

"This is the last show I will ever play with you,
This is the end of what you put me through!
The last show I will ever play with you,
It's the end of what we do!

"Did we do it for the money?
Did we do it 'cause we were bored?
Well, I was better off with what I had before,
And that was nothin', that was nothin' at all!

"This is the last show I will ever play with you,
This is the end of what you put me through!
The last show I will ever play with you!

"This is the last show I will ever play with you,
This is the end of what you put me through!
The last show I will ever play with you!

"This is the last show,
This is the last line,
Good-bye!"
