Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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 2]

And I don't remember what I read

I don't remember what they said

I guess it doesn't matter

I guess it doesn't matter anymore

[Verse 3]

'Cause you're gonna go to the record store

You're gonna give 'em all your money

Radio plays what they want you to hear

They tell me it's cool

I just don't believe it

[Verse 4]

Sell out with me, oh yeah

Sell out with me tonight

The record company's gonna give me lotsa money

And everything's gonna be alright

[Verse 5]

No more flippin' burgers, puttin' on my silly hat

You know I don't want that no more

And I didn't ask when we get paid

Quit my day job anyway

Guess it doesn't matter

Guess it doesn't matter anymore

[Verse 6]

'Cause you're gonna go to the record store

You're gonna give 'em all your money

Radio plays what they want you to hear

They tell me it's cool

I just don't believe it

[Verse 7]

Sell out with me, oh yeah

Sell out with me tonight

The record company's gonna give me lotsa money

And everything's gonna be

[Verse 8]

And I don't think it'll be so bad

And I know it won't be so bad

Cause the man just said "That's the way it is"

And the man said "It don't get better than this"

No, no, no

[Verse 9]

So I signed on to the record company

They said they're gonna give me lots of money

If I play what they want you to hear

Tell me it's cool, and I'll sure believe it

[Verse 10]

Sell out with me, oh yeah

Sell out with me tonight

The record company's gonna give me lotsa money

And everything's gonna be alright

[Verse 11]

Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah

The record company's 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
