Side note in album booklet reads “Note: This is not a NOFX song. This is a song that we covered from a yet to be released soundtrack album. Stay tuned for more details…” In 2015, it was revealed to be a song from the musical Home Street Home, written by Fat Mike, Jeff Marx , and Goddess Soma.
Come on underachievers
Come on all you underpass believers
We’ll give you the skill for street livin'
It feels pretty great to just give in, so just give in
Drop-outs, repeat offenders
We’ll take the weary, weak, the street bartenders
Show them the best times are on the street
Satisfaction through the thrill of defeat, ain't it sweet?
Once you stop yourself from caring
About owning stuff, that’s when you want to start sharing
Cause all the things we want are cheap or free
I define success as not working, and I live like a king
We've got no competition
We've got no accomplished mission
We just wanna live and let others live
Of course we’ll take anything you wanna give, so fucking give
Come on, dance like a retard
Life's an endless party not a punch card
I don't understand some people's drive
Let's just fuck and drink and be alive, not just survive
The Agony of Victory was written by Fat Mike.
