Wrong
98 Mute Lyrics

So you say you hate that band 'cause they sold out.
You claim to dislike bands that have sold out and commercialized their music.

And you sold back all your records is that what it's all about.
You are implying that someone who has sold out has lost their true identity, and you have no respect for them and their music.

Now listen up you fuckin' punk the songs are still the same.
You are trying to make someone understand that the songs of the band haven't changed, only the band's commercial success increased.

'Cause others learn to like them doesn't make them fuckin' lame.
You are telling someone that just because people like the band that has sold out, that doesn't mean they are sellouts.

You're wrong. You're so wrong. You're fuckin wrong... Now run the fuck along.
You are declaring how wrong someone's opinion is and want them to leave.

Shame on all those bands, yeah the ones who play for cash.
You find it disgraceful for bands to have a focus on financial gain rather than the goal of their art.

The ones that count their money as they sit back and they laugh.
You think that some bands see playing music as a way to make a quick buck and don't care about their music's artistry.

Now don't you get too angry with all those KROQ fans.
You advise someone not to be angry with the fans who enjoy listening to the commercialized bands because they might move on to other bands eventually.

With no time they'll bore and be searching for new bands.
You believe that those who listen to bands based on their commercial success will eventually get bored and look for new bands.

You sold out.. They sold out. We'd sell out, there's no fuckin' doubt.
You are expressing that everyone has the potential to sell out, whether it be through their art, beliefs or values.

So you got it figured out and you know it all.
You think that someone has a strong opinion and thinks they understand everything about the music industry.

Some of those bands were punk back when you were still hanging at the mall.
You're pointing out that some of these bands have been around for a while, and to hate on them now could be representative of a shallow understanding of their roots and history.

It's called respect and you don't have it and probably never will.
You are implying that someone who doesn't have respect for others will never obtain it, no matter how hard they try.

I know 'cause I was once like you just fighting against my will.
You are acknowledging that you had similar beliefs but have now recognized the importance of respecting other people's choices, even if you don't agree with them.
