Reel Big Fish – Down In Flames lyrics
Well you don't know me
But here I am in your living room
You don't own me
But you paid and that means a lot to you
Well You never listen
But I know that's what you think that you do (that you do)
Yea, everybody wants to change
But this time it'll be the same - watch us go down in flames

It's alright, it's okay, it was gonna happen anyway
We had our chance, we made our point
But you're not gonna take that...

Radio commercials, tv shows, and front-page ads
Photos and interviews, well they'll make sure it's the latest fad
Well Pay attention
Cuz you know you'll have to pay either way (either way)
And they'll tell you that it's the new thing
But we know that it hasn't changed - watch us go down in flames

It's alright, it's okay, it was gonna happen anyway
We had our chance, we made our point
But you're not gonna take that...
Away (x4)

When this blows over
And the mainstream coughs up another shell
Will you let us back in your underground?
Well I guess that's a 'no' and it's just as well
Cuz you never supported us
All you wanted was to see us fail (see us fail)

And they tell me that it's the new thing
So I better get out of the way - watch us go down in flames

It's alright, it's okay, it was gonna happen anyway
We had our chance, we made our point
But you're not gonna gonna take that... (x2)
Away
You're not gonna gonna take that... Away
Not gonna gonna take that... Away
You're not gonna gonna take that... Away
