There is no Alternative
It used to be a choice
How can there be an Alternative
When we’re fed the same thing
Every day?
How can it be Alternative
And on the Rick Dee’s 40 show?
For there to be an alternative
You need to have at least fucking
Two
One more than one
An alternative dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking
Mainstream always wanted the underground
Forget the life, we got the sound
Live (sell) fast, die young
Your Alternative wants some
Everybody’s heard of Alternative
That’ll be our next star
The only thing Alternative
About you is your silly name
Now dump the sound, we got the look
Gonna make a million and change
Think of all that money
And those credit cards
An alternative dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking dollar sign
An alternative
An alternative what?
I can appreciate the music
Without cheetahs, goatees, and Dew
Don’t you see, the money hungry
Have assumed the image (obey)
For our entire generation
You are X
You are X
Snobs in their Tommy, it’s just a uniform
Every one to the mall
Red, white, and blue for all
I wanna (gotta) conform
You should see my trash bag
It’s a Tommy
I’m so cool
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking
Dollar sign
I always hoped that someday
The music would come to the front
Now there’s a fucking hopeless waiting list
Your Alternative wants some
We can’t leave anything alone
We can market this
There is no Alternative
It used to be a voice
I can’t stand your Alternative
Another fucking pre-packaged t-shirt
Available at Walmart
Or at your local landfill
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
An alternative dollar sign
Just another fucking
Dollar sign
I’d rather listen to Classic Rock
