This past Saturday marked the release of “Oxy Moronic,” the third track and lead single from the upcoming NOFX album “First Ditch Effort”. As if that’s not enough, the comedic geniuses at Funny or Die magazine made the video for the song! Here’s Fat Mike to explain:
“I thought it was a long shot, but I sent our new song “Oxy Moronic” to my friend at Funny or Die to see if they wanted to use it for something. He played it for some people and next thing I know, they asked if they could make a video for it! Funny or Die made a fucking video for NOFX! How cool is that?!?!?! Plus, they recruited a bunch of their comedian friends to be in it too!!! There’s even that guy from “Sons of Anarchy’ in it’”
“First Ditch Effort” drops on October 7 and is available now for pre-order! Grab it from iTunes, Amazon, or Google Play and you’ll get an immediate download of “Oxy Moronic,” as well as “Six Years on Dope” and “I Don’t Like Me Anymore.” Think you can handle more good news? NOFX have announced a tour behind “First Ditch Effort” with New Orleans maniacs, PEARS, and Israel punkers, USELESS ID. Tickets for the tour are on sale now! Use presale code: FIRSTDITCHEFFORT.
Lyrics:
I’ve been called an OxyMoron
Because I question which drugs our war’s on
Why are there more drug stores than liquor stores you can score on
The healers have become the harmers
They’re just pharmaceutical farmers
What we used to call dealers
We now call doctors
I might be a CD Cynic
Cause that crack house is now a clinic
It’s time they change the name of the oath to
The hypocritic or the parasiticIt isn’t Adderalltruistic
By overprescribing
How can we fight them in a Suboxone ring
I’ll throw a Prozacuzation
With a Subketamining
They’ll say my fears are Quaaludacris
They should be AtivanishingWith every Demeroltercation
They’ll have a good Xanaxplanation
You’re just Cialistrated
Cause we made your dick deflatedIt’s OxyMoronic
It’s OxyMoronicIt should be doctors getting busted
For their Klonopinions we trusted
We’re not the sinners, they’re the ones
That served us the Vicodinners
I don’t want to be an alarmist
But in that harmacy there’s a harmacist
And those scripts are making us Paximple minded pacifistsIt’s OxyMoronic
It’s OxyMoronic
It’s OxyMoronic
It’s OxyMoronicDon’t think that I AmBien crazy
The medical industrial complex
Keeps us Viagravated and hard to come
Because of Percosex
How can we Hydrocondone
Their blatant misconduct
They don’t care for patients
They care about pushing productAre you OxyMoronic
For wanting your daily chronic
And making your mom’s house hydroponic
You’re OxyMoronicI’ve been called an OxyMoron
For getting my metaphor on
Linoleum is a Flooron
I’m an OxyMoronIt’s time to be alarmed
We’re not being healed, we’re being harmed
Our country’s being factory farmed
It’s OxyMoronic
It’s time to sound the alarma
We can’t put our faith in karma
We got a common enemy
And they’re called Big PharmaAnd it’s OxyMoronic
And it’s OxyMoronic
It’s all OxyMoronic
It’s all OxyMoronic– Daily chronic, now most of your house is, okay
– “Most of your house is” what does that even mean?
– He’s turned most of his house into hydroponic
– Why wouldn’t he have turned all of it into hydroponic?
– Well cause he lives there
– “Now all of your house is hydroponic”
“Most” is sappy. Really, it’s like saying “maybe”.
– How about “Now your mom’s house is hydroponic”?
– Yes! That’s fucking way better
God, you fucking woke up
Come on, Mike, where you’ve been?
– Shut the fuck up, fool
– Where you’ve been all month?
