The A/V Club
Well this one time I played me a show
In Detroit with HCS and Papa Django
But nobody paid attention because every television
Was showing lots of black and white old porno
So I played a Slackers cover while the soundguy stared at bush
And the headliner made me sound less shitty
And then later on that year he remembered me on tour
And that's when I cut a track at Version City
And this other time I played me a show
Back when Deal's Gone Bad's Detroit draw was still tiny
Well the place looked like a dungeon and I played a NOFX song
While Jackass Number 2 was on behind me
And I got a bit self-conscious when I heard the people's laughs
But I figured someone probably shoved a Hot Wheels up his ass
Although I may never be as good as what is on the screen
Playing to myself still makes me happy
Yeah playing to myself still makes me happy
