When The Labels Come A Knockin'
(An Ode To Obi)

Lyrics and Music: Jason Foley
©1998, Day 19

Hey Mr. Metalhead
Don’t you know
that metal’s dead?
Cause my Ska band is the flava of da month

It’s kinda weird
how this came about
we haven’t really played
that much out

We’re kinda young
and we’re sorta cool
with really shiny horns
and leather shoes

Get ourselves a chick lead singer
yeah cause that’s the shit
cause that’s the way to make us linger
no doubt about it

When the labels come a knockin’
I’ll be there
with my hand out
to catch the money from the air
When the labels come a knockin’
I’ll be there
To catch the money yeah.....

Why don’t we sample some
really cool Police song
cause it seems like that’s the thing to do

What are we
doing anyway
treading on
that O.C. play

We used to play
grunge
but now we’re
something new
