NOFX - Philthy Phil Philanthropist Lyrics






There's something wrong with mass consumption
Why do we want what we don't need
Alcohol burn it clean, asphalt methampphetamin
Will make it seem alright, It's gonna make it seem alright
Living in the hunger underground
Some people say I got a problem with authority so
What if I do man it beats relinquished control

Philthy Phil Philantropist
You've taken when you shoulda give away
Philthy Phil you gave to us
We cannot repay

There's something grand about being nothing
There's something lame about being grand
Alcohol squirting gun, don't want no holidays in the sun
That's me not being you, that's me not being you
Either part of the solution or the problem
Can there not be a middle ground for just the anybody
Replace Superman with Joe ordinary

Philthy Phil Philanderer
You've taken when you shoulda give away
Philthy Phil you gave to us
We cannot repay

  14. J.... T....

    Best punk band of all time

    J.... T....

    Agreed! I still remember buying this album 1996. I was 15 and the same day my mom committed me for doing drugs and being a general crazy kiddo. So I had to wait two weeks to get out and listen to it.

    J.... T....

    I heard they still suck live.

    J.... T....

    Oh yeah dude

    J.... T....

    @Johnathon Gouker fuck you no there not

    J.... T....

    Black Flag (Rollins era) is my favorite along with The Misfits (Danzig era) and Dead Kennedy's. NoFx is rad though.

  17. S.... d....

    SOCIALSM IS NOT A COMMUNISM> ask Mike

    S.... d....

    socialism is the first step to communism > ask lenin

    S.... d....

    Socialism is when there is Democratic control of the means of production. Communism is when there are no classes, states or money.

    S.... d....

    Fuck socialism ask Venezuela what they think of it! You fuckin Commie fuck

    S.... d....

    @PREMIUM Venezuela doesn't have democratic control of the means of production. We've already been over the definition. Also, come back with something original.

  18. M.... a....

    thats actully true but i don't see a problem with it, it's good too be depending on others.

  19. I.... ....

    Están enamorados

  20. B.... ....

    punk rock IS MY LIFE and i also have a strong dislike communism

    B.... ....

    punk rock isn't inherently communist. that was just some stupid immature bullshit as a means to act out against reagan and thatcher. if anything, it's supposed to be anarchist

  21. T.... B....

    Only a sith deals in absolutes...

  22. 4.... ....

    Also true.

  23. d.... ....

    hehe aha

  24. d.... ....

    I hear they suck live!

  25. T.... M....

    It's not about your bands telling you how to think. It's about what the left wing represents.

    T.... M....

    right, because obummer and hilldawg ended up being so much different than dubya XD

  26. 4.... ....

    On the original cover they're 69'ing. (not a joke)

  27. T.... M....

    You're not a punk if you're not a socialist, or at least a liberal. Fuck you lol.

    T.... M....

    DUMB FUCKING IDIOT!! !!!!!!!!

    T.... M....

    you're not a punk if you're not an ANARCHIST you fuckwit

  28. S.... J....

    There's something grand about being nothing
    There's something lame about being grand
    !!! TRUE


  29. z.... ....

    "THATS ME NOT BEING YOU."

    Yeah that's pretty much how I roll...

  30. w.... ....

    I fucking love your comment bro. It's all about taking all of the money from the common people. And oh, the sick fucking shit some of the common people will do to get money! Punk Music has the best lyrics of any genre. And I see that as fact not opinion :-D

  31. o.... ....

    It's cool that there are no NoFXVEVO

  32. v.... ....

    you got it. and plenty of us already knew that... and yet we eat their crap and drink their piss and pay for bullshit health care (I even prepay, and never use it!!) WTF IS WRONG WITH US?!?!

  33. p.... ....

    uh huh huh, you said ''FLIPPIN'' awesome!

  34. d.... ....

    That's beautiful

  35. M.... ....

    I like to take shits while I masturbate to El hefe

  36. p.... ....

    this is punk not psychology so both of you shut up

  37. f.... u....

    @juneausucks youre almost right with every you say. but its more pervert you think...
    they dont see us as consumers without any feelings. they study the psychology of
    the human beeing, try to analysis how we consum or what intention we have.
    who is consuming more or which kind of folks (kids, oldies, liberals, conservatives....)

  38. f.... u....

    @juneausucks they knwo how they have to act infront of each kind of folk to sell their products while let
    those thinking they really need it..

    that kind of manipulating and lying to people is called: marketing

    i know that i am not typing gramatically correctly (cause i am a swiss fucker)

  39. f.... u....

    and i am not sorry for it...;-) when you dont understand the meaning you are anyway
    a stupid manipulable puppet on the strings from society and you act like
    you have to cause you dont know it better, so you are worthless anyway...

  40. D.... ....

    @k1ll3rStza yes mate i like your style, this song has potential but more speed needs to be involved

  41. k.... 1....

    fuck is this punk or is it f all up trash i cannt call it more than a bullshit band get with it grow some balls and speed it up.....

  42. A.... O....

    @juneausucks without them you would have to find your own food, your own shelter, fend off EVERY threat yourself without walls to protect yourself or a justice system to provide some level of deterance.
    the same system that squeezes you dry gives you the same basic luxuries that provide any modicum of comfort. this world is every man for himself so u can't expect services and necessities from others without them taking from yourself also

  43. v.... 3....

    Punk Rock & Hard Core \m/

  44. J.... B....

    @juneausucks Renounce your materialistic lifestyle and become an Alpaca farmer in Mexico, like me

  45. t.... ....

    No more ' holidays in the sun' is a sex pistols reference, and he drives it home when he emphasizes, either part of the solution or the, 'problem' which is also a pistols song. That's me not being you :)

  46. T.... A....

    awesome

  47. v.... 3....

    na verdade eh punk rock

  48. v.... 3....

    @hahapokerface .I.
    isso naum eh rock
    Hardcore!

  49. L.... O....

    jóinha pra todos que assistem Pânico na TV ae :D

  50. j.... ....

    theres something wrong with mass consumption, why do we want what we dont need?? these type of lyrics are what made me love nofx. the corperations see us as consumers and not human beings. were designed to be unhealthy because its a win win situation for them if we eat there garbage for our whole life and get diseased and pay for bullshit health care. they squeeze every penny out of us from the day we are born till the day we die.

    j.... ....

    lemme guess, you were an obama/hilldawg voter to take down those corporations? those very same corporations that the left is just as much in bed with as the right?

  51. n.... ....

    i discovered NOFX with that song late at night on the radio... went to buy the CD, then bought them all

  52. J.... ....

    We All are Philthy Phil Philanthropists :D

  53. s.... ....

    this song is fucking awesome

  54. s.... ....

    there's something lame about disliking this song... bigup nofxxxxxx

  55. j.... ....

    fuckin awesome. took me forever to remember the name of this song.
