Intro:
"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.
Verse 1:
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
Pre-chorus 1:
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
Chorus:
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) (note: said 1st and 3rd times only)
Verse 2:
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
(Pre-chorus 1)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
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
Pre-chorus 2:
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
(Chorus)
Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah
The record company
Is gonna make everything alright
Ending:
"Baby don't you sign that paper tonight," she said,
But I can't work in fast food all my life.
"Well I know you can't work in fast food all your life
But don't sign that paper tonight,"
