Great new NOFX song on Punk O Rama volume 8
My daughter gave it to me for my birthday per my request. I love the Punk O Rama compilations because it's a great way to get a "taste" of their new bands. Epitaph is a great label; most of my favorite bands are there!

**********************************************
"The Idiots are taking over"

Idiots Are Taking Over
it's not the right time to be sober
now the idiots have taken over
spreading like a social cancer, is there an answer?

mensa membership exceeding
tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding
Watson it's really elementary
the industrial revolution
has flipped a bitch on evolution
the benevolent and wise are being thwarted, ostracized, what a bummer
the world keeps getting dumber
insensitivity is standard and faith is being fancied over reason

darwin's rollin over in his coffin
the fittest are surviving much less often
now everything seems to be reversing, and it's worsening
someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool
now angry mob mentality's no longer the exception, it's the rule
and im startin to feel a lot like charlton heston
stranded on a primate planet
apes and orangutans that ran it to the ground
with generals and the armies that obeyed them
followers following fables
philosophies that enable them to rule without regard

there's no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated
political scientists get the same one vote as arkansas's inbred
majority rule, don't work in mental institutions
sometimes the smallest softest voice carries the grand biggest solutions

what are we left with?
a nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists
who feel it's their duty to populate the homeland
pass on traditions
how to get ahead religions
and prosperity the via simpleton culture

the idiots are takin over

1. you should get the new album
"The War on Errorism"

has a good flash movie of "idiot son of an asshole".

NOFX has gotten quite a bit more political these days.

5. I bought mine at Target!
I couldn't believe Target would stock something like that, with Resident Dumbshit's clown face on the front like that. Anyway, the whole CD kicks major ASS. I just love their sound - It's been awhile since I bought anything I wanted to play LOUD.

2. They also sing "The Idiot Son of an Asshole."
Three guesses as to whom they are referring.

3. I know; I've seen them perform it live at Warped Tour last year
I was already a NOFX fan. They're the ones who should have made it big instead of Blink 182, f'rinstance.
