Lyrics:
Before James (Jimmy Dread) died he smiled and laughed
Cuz he was just photographed for the last time
While it was drowned the kitten purred
At least that’s what I thought I heard
But maybe that’s cuz I need to believe in the absurd
Ashes to ashes after the planet crashes I trust all dust will turn to dust
I used to think a wasted life was not a crime “Kevin Seconds”
That’s before I realized we don’t have very much more time
Whose God was it that finally damned us
Or was it all foreseen by Nostradamus
My melodies are maladies my poetries are just phonetic
Trying to make sense of this world is preposterous pathetic
The Gods have had their fun playing this world but now it’s too upsetting
The human race is not worth watching or wagering on
We’re just a longshot, an underdog with odds so bad now it’s just a blood letting
So, every deitywith dignity has just stopped betting
It used to be a blood sport, now that the most popular God’s son is finally setting
So,follow me into a world of anything you’ve ever dreamed
Now that morality is blurred if you listen really closely
You probably believe in every single word
The only thing we can count on is an eternity of this absurdity
Mesmerizedby rhetorical and memorized historical events
That never actually occurred
Because a herd needs to believe every command and every word they ever heard
We’renot blind were bound and blinded our minds have been land minded
And I’m so excited!Remember when colors made a rainbow from a prism
Now black and white thinking makes reignbows into prisons
Every single person on this planet thinks they are right
The new black and white reignbows
Cuz if you thought that you were wrong
You’d change your mind fuckfrom black to white
I do believe in True Romance
So,I’m gonna dance and fight and fuck with every moment
I’ll always have something in my glass to raise
To make a toast for those making the most of the last days
But there is no black and white there’s only different SHADES of gray
That’s why it’s insane to believe in anything or live a certain way
Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be ok
Nothing is ever gonna change, nothing will ever be ok
There’s only a finite number of tomorrows
And it’s not a lot but it’s all we really got it’s all we really got Live each precious moment that we can manage to carve out of each day
So,when it’s time for us to die we’ll say our short goodbye
There is no sadness if there’s no one left to cry - Розваги
Out of all the videos that NoFx have released, this is definitely one of them.
Ps5 👌 👌 o 9ilu
that doesnt even make sense
@@leehandy1819 yes it does, this is one, out of all of them videos, that nofx has released
@@leehandy1819 do more drugs. you'll get it.
😂
NOFX has been making some of the best sh*t for like 40 years, I'm speechless, just f--king amazing.
37 to be exact. Yes it's amazing. Sorry not trying to correct you Im just agreeing it's awesome they're still ripping.
Just finished listening to their book on audible. I definitely recommend it over reading it. Bcuz they all read their own chapters plus they got Jello from DK & Tommy Chong from Cheech & Chong as quests reading other chapters. It's fantastic n very moving, some fun entertaining stories but also some extremely gut wrenching honesty, self awareness n extremely emotional moments. N isn't that what we like punk for in the first place? It's raw stripped down pure rock n roll, success n failure, love n hate, laughter n tears, n the truth. Which is not easy to find these days let alone tell.
So for them to read their own confessions n innermost intimate thoughts about each other, their friends n family n assess themselves, their car n life is just wow....it will leave u speechless like a lot of their songs lately. This is a new area for NOFX n not just them but all of us in America n in general around the world.
They r by far more impressive then the Rolling Stones, or Black Sabbath, or Zeppelin in their endurance of partying, drugs, touring, n managing regular lives n families as well as business. Just no contest in my opinion. N I've read a lot of band bios n watched many docs on musicians n bands, n they just amaze me. I've always loved them, but I have a much deeper more serious respect for them now.
If Jackass formed a band instead n used their collective intellect n musical skills that's kind of what nofx is. The embodiment of that generation but with much more reflection n thought n emotion as possible I think. They might've been an accident, unplanned disaster turned miracle success that helped them grow where n when many others of that generation n mine looking up to them couldn't change or grow n they changed but in a way that allowed them to stay true to themselves at their core, n thankfully shared n brought us all along for the ride. Thank u long live NOFX!
Excited for Jackass Forever btw don't get me wrong I'm stoked for that movie. But I feel this is deserved even more so... #nofxforever
This deserves more likes
@@KosMik_Skul you get it
Never has a video so perfectly captured the feelings of a song. I didn’t think I could have loved this song more until I saw it. Thanks for this. 💚
This!!
Agreed Sarah. This hit me really hard, as if the song and the lyrics hadn’t already.
Thank you for telling this Sarah! it means we did our job well !!!
So perfect!!!!!! NoFX
Came here to say these same words
If Nofx didn't exist, apart of my children, I wouldn't know who to love ❤❤❤
lately everything NOFX brings out makes me so fucking emotional. It's good when a band can move you.
A lot of songs from them make me emotional, "Linoleum", "She's gone", "The decline" to name a few...
@@garryiglesias4074 the idiots are taking over
The most emotional songs to us is My orphan year and I'm so sorry Tony. But even line: I decided right there, I can’t be bothered to care! making us very emotional !!!!
It's amazing how many of their songs bring me to tears
@@garryiglesias4074 There's gotta be some deep meaning I'm missing with "Linoleum". It always seemed like a song about floor tilings.
It will be a sad day when NOFX lays to rest, here I am almost 40 years old been a fan since high school listened to probably every song and their still making new music - that's devotion! Not just music but stories that speak truth to what we have become. Keep singing NOFX and I will always listen!
Why must we stay where we don't belong? _to grow_
Absolutely same here. 40 years and still listening them no matter what
Same here..
the time has come! 2023 will be there last gig..sucks!! but im so thankful for the 30 years of nofx music I got...IMO one of the greatest punk bands of all time
same!
One of the greatest videos of all time in my opinion
Yeah but did any of the band members write and animate it themselves??
@@historyoflol5611 i don't get your point... did the band members build their own instruments by hand?
I agree 100%
@@historyoflol5611 Liberal animation?
The video is unimaginative rapid edit junk that in know way fits the vibe of the song.
holy shit this is deep, ive been feeling this way for a while, i love the souls repeating history, amazing.
For the rest of my days I'll never fully grasp how deep you can actually take punk, but because of great music I'll be jamming until the end.
NOFX the most bodacious of punk bands after all these years still coming up with the goods and the video is class also. This band are the dogs bollox!
Bodacious? It’s like you just opened a time capsule in my memory. Rad! And bogus at the same time
Well, looks like I've learned a new word today!
This video should be taught in schools.
This song makes a lot more sense when you see the video, so strong so full of feelings... I'm speechless
I'm a pure death metal dude. Got a band on relapse records. But nofx is never gonna stop being in my top three. Fuckin great band.
What band do you play in? I love death metal and relapse records.
Hail Satan
Ty: Nice
@@fatmikedude hails
@@crombaugh I've been in a lot, did a lot of fill in tour stuff with a ton of bands off relapse. Just from meeting people on the label from shows and shit. But my band that got me into it all was The Drip, a grind band still on relapse.
We will understand in a few decades how lucky we were to grow up with this band that has a place in the top 10 of those who have marked the history of rock. Thanks for ALL guys, you are an oxygen bubble for many people and I feel lucky to be part of it.
Best music video i ve seen for 20 years... so much thoughts in only 4 minutes !
When art and music come.together perfectly. Great job!
Easily one of the most poetic songs and videos of NOFX's catalog. Great work all involved.
Just speechless. I can only thank NOFX n all the crew at Fat Wreck Chords for all those years of different feelings. THANK YOU ALL and THANK the people who agree or disagree and can share an opinion without a fight
Thank you for your impressions and thoughts. We see that some people are disturbed by some visuals and it's good! It's a punk rock! It's obvious that people see their own things in the visuals, not exactly what we put there. Guess it's not a first NOFX song which made someone pissed or angry. Same to our cartoon videos! But we glad that amount of fans who enjoyed it is bigger 😊

"There's no sadness if there's no one left to cry"
so laugh when the system and their puppet pawns fall,fat wreck is its own label even tho tmz follows them around,thats kinda sketchy...
Sad day when they hang up their hats man. Been such a huge part of my life. Relating so much to their music. Watching them aged as I have, amidst the fame and lifestyle, there are still things that are relatable and helps me find ways to express myself, through their expression of themselves. Wish I could thank them for their contribution to culture, and to helping me to stay sane throughout the years. I put the bands name on my body. It's a part of me, although I contributed nothing other than money. Through drug abuse, breakups, homelessness, new cars, large homes, new careers, all of it, the band has been playing in the background. Kudos to NOFX for sharing themselves for us all to see.
This song and Single Album is great. I bet it will be looked back at as the bands dark masterpiece in 10 years.
There is no masterpiece if there's no one left to remember
I agree. Killer opening track. Really great album pretty different style but then again those talented lads just keep surprising me. I hope to Mike they keep going for years to come. Dearest NOFX, you guys have created music and provoked thought that’s given me reasons to live and fight for myself in times when I thought I couldn’t. Keep going! I love you! And thank you!
One of their best albums imo.
One of the first punk bands I listened to as a teenager, and to see new tunes still coming out is f@€king awesome!!! Nice one lads!!!
Edit* I commented before finishing the video- woah, this is deep AF, one of the most epic tunes you boys have done imo
You can say fuck. Its not the greatest world anymore, but you dont have to censor yourself!
Shit..That was the most intense nofx video i've ever watched.💀🖤👁️🌼🔥
I wish Tony was here to see and hear this...I felt his legacy in this. Thank you, this was fucking beautiful.
We wish Tony was here, was too late for us - no chance to see his live performance anymore :( We felt we should have him in a video.
Sounds kinda like Sly? Right?
First time I saw NUFAN was in the late 90s (with mad Caddies & Lag Wagon) in a small German club.
Asked him to sign my shirt after the show - he messed it up, went off and got me a new shirt and a beer. Awesome experience.
This is spectacular, I almost cry.
I really can't remember last time I listened and actually watched a music video for the first time from start to finish. This one is on that rare list. Amazing.
Beautifully introspective song about how humanity continues to repeat its mistakes, as well as how important it is for us to not take every moment we’re alive for granted. Sounds incredible at 1.25 speed too.
Really? I thought it was about not being able to get the quality of public wifi we used to get...
amazing lol
Wow I'm absolutely floored at how deep this song goes...and continues going deeper like a tank flying down a mountain at maximum overdrive.
So rad for actual NOFX and Tony fans
When he throws the Pennywise record on the floor 😂 Have watched this vid 100 times and this was the first time I noticed haha.
One of the most innovative,unique,catchy,but still unapologetically NOFX in the highest form to date imo. OLD SKOOL PUNK NEVER DIES!
“There’s no sadness if there’s no one left to cry”
That hit me.
fun fact,this world is not the crying kind ,just the whining kind ,obvious difference
can't wait to watch this video again when it finishes
Single album grows on you, and I'm happy Nofx has been an influence of mine, over the years.
"Humanity can be only as good as NoFx can" SirWalterWalterson 1858
It was 1857 man.
No, in 1857 he said "humanity can only be as good as a nofx fan" ...
What an amazing video! Love how NOFX still kicks ass after all these years! Keep up the great work guys.
NoFX PLEASE TOUR CANADA SOON!!! I’ll go to every show!
Honestly one of the best videos I've ever seen. The fun little cameos, Easter eggs etc. I've watched at least 5 times already and each time I see something new. Huge props to the creators and NOFX.
Kick down all u have found . I keep looking. Only found 2. I'd love to know more
This will take a few watches to take it all in!! Fkn yeah Mad Twins, Bravo!
Fat Mike you and nofx are the best from punk dean in the UK Colchester Essex thanks 😊
Absolutely Amazing art by the MadTwins!
Thank you Olafh :) :)
I’ve been a fan since the mid 90’s, and will be for the rest of my days. Can’t wait to hear this one live some day.
Alot of work went into that. So cool. I'm currently struggling with how to enjoy life to the fullest. Thanks nofx for still being here.we def dont have much time
Hop trains. Helps the mind
It's gonna be okay, chum. Hang in there. We have plenty of time.
They never cease to amaze. I remember the first time I heard them. It was a cassette tape of Ribbed. I was hooked and continue to be.
Helping us through these crazy times! Thanks are always helping me make it through!
SIMPLY........................AMAZING!!!!
PORCA TROIA!!!!
Mad Twins nailed it !!
NOFX never leave me disappointed !!!
YESSSS !!!
il porca troia ci stà tutto!
Aggiungerei un Maremma maiala!! Che pezzo!! 🖤
@@deejayLEX e your last resort dove lo mettiamo? semplicemente pazzesco..
best NOFX song since The Decline
4:47 there is Jakarta Monas (National Monument). Also NOFX had special place in Indonesian punk.
Come to Indonesia :v
@@fergon6296 dulu udah pernah
Wow. Very impressive. Been a fan for 20+yrs. Very satisfying video for a deep song
One of the best music videos I have ever seen great job by the animators
Thank you !
Some of the best lyrics Mike has ever written. Moving song. I love you Nofx thanks for all the great music
Um Uh showing this video to my son is pretty much the best thing I can do he has never seen punk rock in the making like this, I was 12 and now he is 12, and somehow he know's every cord to every guitar riff that nofx has ever made, I couldn't be more proud!!!
Dropkick Murphys, Bowling for Soup, NOFX... Love that all these punk rock bands are making cartoons this year!
And Brian Setzer and Foo Fighters! Not punx but we like them!
It's too simple to define this video a "masterpiece". But this is the truth. So touching.
Beautiful song, powerful words. NOFX lives! ✊🏻
Brutal and beautiful.
Anyone else break down crying listening to these songs?
On The Decline----when they sing, "Save us! The human existence is failing. Resistance essential!"
That part hits me in the dam heartstrings 😭❤️❤️❤️😭
Wow! Just wow! Amazing video, congrats to everyone involved! You rule!
Wow. That was pretty rad. Very moving, made the hair on my arms stand up and some of the imagery captures a wide spectrum. The most amazing part was how the leads are weak and how NOFX still gets my attention going on 30+ years. You've helped get me through it. Don't stop.
bro, whenever i saw tony, it literally brought tears to my eyes
Like other commenters, I didn’t really get the song, until I saw this video. Holy shit. So great!
I can't believe I didn't notice how much Hedwig there is in this video ❤️ way to go mike
GREAT!!! It's BEAUTIFUL!!!
This video, and this song won The Internet this year.
Everytime!!
Thank you Tobias! Your comment won this thread for sure !!!
Not enough like buttons!!!!!
Thanks...great song and the video is beyond excellent.
Unbelivably GREAT!!! Thank you all guys for such a great song and video!!! Thousands thanks!!!
I loved the song when the album came out. But that video made it so much better! Great job
Done it again another genius clip and a brilliant song to add to a increasing catalogue of perfection. Keep it up NOFX rule the punk scene.
🤙🇦🇺
It’s been a long time! Really beautiful thing rolling here!
Huh...I’m going to need to watch this several more times. I really love the song and the album. Cheers!
The new Daria looks rad!!
Man smelly's drums are fucking on point!
Wow... this song is so deep, the music video really captured what Mike was saying. GREAT JOB!
Great video. Great band. Thanks guys
Holy moly! What a trip! Excellent animation!
We need one for each song on Single Album!
Wonderful video that really completes the song.
Thank you so much for this song and this video!! Perfect 🙏
Arigatou NOFX. Fans you from 🇯🇵
Such an amazing video that just wipes away the gloss and shine and shows the truth of how humanity, really doesnt exist, not in the way that makes us feel superior to the other animals. Loving the song, going to spin it on my radio show tonight.
Lol, at that fun little jab towards Pennywise (and Epitaph?).
Great video to a well written song.
Can’t blame em. Fletcher did pick up mike and throw him into smellys drum set that one time, then proceeded to completely destroy what was left of the drum set when he was shitpiled drunk.
@@jakejonas7366 im sure it was all in good fun but man, i would have been pissed
Fletcher. ? Ummmm noooo
I learned more from this video than I have learned in years of school.
Thank you Rodo X! Please follow Madtwinsart on Instagram (you can find link in video description). We are going to do a live stream next week and telling more about all cartoon visuals and symbols.
Wow. I wasent sure at the start. But by the end it hit me in the feels. Made me think and gave me goosebumps.
Wow!! 😲 This is one of the best music videos I've ever seen, it's so well done and looks amazing, the animation is stunning and fits perfectly with the song and lyrics! Absolutely awesome guys, well done to all involved! Love this song and 'Single Album' and after watching this video I need to go and listen to the album again right now! Cheers guys, great work, love it, keep it up, all the best. 👏👍🤘🖤
Thank you Garry! We like the Single Album a lot too!
Wow, great job on this one. I was shocked how much this resonates with me and my imagination. Some parts of the video feel like almost being taken straight out of my mind.
You guys said in this song all we gotta say together.This video is so cool, true and powerful, a bit nostalgic.We love and respect you!
the use of mosaic art style is great in this video. powerful imagery
One of the most deepest & darkest song
Love how they took it to a dark metal vibe
Woooow, I was not expecting that. This video is insane! Absolutely epic! It compliments the song perfectly, I'm so fucking impressed. I've been a NOFX for around 22-23 years and Fat Mike has continued to be an absolute savage artist. Well fucking done!
Video und Song ....ballern einen für knapp 6min von den Planeten....NOFX waren schon immer gut und perfektionieren das noch....super
greetings from Panamá, excellent video! excellent song!
That was literally a poetic masterpiece. Every everything about the video was perfect.
Left speechless....
thanks man
Madtwins- that was freakin awesome.
i just cant believe how awesome it is.. didnt expect that at all.. love you guys
Super song and video thanx NOFX
Beautiful fucking video. Genuinely laughed my ass off when Mike just chucked the PW album.
Never forget Tony Sly
We'll see him on the outside... And we'll never be the same...
I still remember Tony calling me out in the crowd because of my old MDC shirt.
Yours to destroy
love it! this song needed to be longer!!!
Iiii did not expect this song/video to be such an odyssey! Wow.
Yes, video influenced by Homer Odysseus a lot.
I am loving this, its a big surprise amazing video and songwriting thanx NoFX.
You got me and my support forever since 1994, I remember when fat wreck chords came out
and they did your own way. :::))))XD this is what Punk is.
Punx will never die
I agree with you, man!!!
@@lacajab 💪💪💪💪💪💪
I looooved the video. I shed a tear at the end.
Oh these guys will never get old. ❤️❤️
