NOFX - Scavenger Type Lyrics

Such a great track

Does anyone know for sure the chords and strumming for this song? I have been trying to learn it for 15 years.

I learned today watching a cover

I watched this one, easy as the strumming ☺

Youhei do you want to marry me?

@Santi M Nah man,i'm into Girls.

One of my favorite song, music, and lyrics, fuckin' lyrics... Respect

damn you don t want to be on a beach in montenegro listening to this while the sun go down or do you relly want to ear this and hope you just slide in the sea with nobody noticing?

Amazing how to this day this album still the best punk album front to back

H....how did the cat get so fat

Back to the kitchen. I smell something burning - still got it as a text message ringtone.

Haven't listened to this band in years. Completely forgot how good they were.

As a teenager I thought this song was so tragic. Now it is completely heartbreaking.

I don't know why, but when I hear this I think of Australia

b4 nofx were cucked sell outs

and you say that from a "pennywise" account? 😂

I always have this doubt: those chords belonged to well-known song or it just sound similar to me for no reason?

Rodrigo Gonzalez which song?

Rodrigo Gonzalez The chord progression used in this song is very common amongst their songs and other songs!

Rodrigo Gonzalez Its literally just the most common chords used in Ska, played on an acoustic.

so it prolly sounds very familiar.

My 7 year old daughter requested I learn to play this one. Careful where you leave your MP3 player. Kill your TV.

anyone else get the bottom of the hill reference?

he's playing his horn at the bottom of a hill, like all the crazy hills in San Francisco, getting change for booze

oh and giggin' like a music gig

Or at the venue called "bottom of the hill" in San Francisco

chords?

wankers every one of you
no exceptions

twice a day keeps the doctor away

love this song

This song makes a happy hole in my heart every time.

Cool thing about NOFX is that he is a Revelator and may know it, but most likely does not, which makes the music slightly comedic. Basic at the Alpha level, complete and perfect at the Omega.

+Glade Roberts you killed it

liquid poetry in music. Awesome song, awesome lyricks.

Wow, A drunk dies doing the thing he loves to do, playing music and not drinking. Awesome song. Vote Republican!

I'm left side so, no I wont vote republican either way I'm not gonna vote and I hope the kkk in your name is a joke

My friends and I would always listen to the last two songs on this album to end our night. Then in the spirit of NOFX, we would plug in another album and start drinking again. If the sun isn't up, the night isn't over.

Nirvana 1997

Jack Burgess funny read the book they almost played with them... and smelly dated Courtney or something like that... great book

@Geoff Tomkinson I guess he was referring to the italian movie Nirvana that features this song in the soundtrack. Great movie for its time

so true. Much wow. Aha!!

Did this bill and the other Bob form AA?

no way, bill dies

AfromanKKK2 yup Bill freezes to death.

AfromanKKK2 Yup shit suucks, did the crust punk thing at a time and place in my life! Lol Love this song, met a lot of people. Made some really good friends along the way. Lost some friends too. suucks! But this song brings back good memories, Of playing music on the street!, and with my friends! Wherever we could find a place to jam and rock the fuck out!!! Also of me ending up a permanent homeless resident one day. Lol. Both the same. Just got to migrate with the weather. and, Move like a gypsy hobo! Train hopping hobo!!! Gutter Punk! Lol If they'll have me?!!!!

Would be the fourth time travelling the country. All times broke and poor. And still am.

check out my cover for this song! /watch?v=cNA9Fv2C7EU

Sounds a bit like NOFX...

A crow, a scavenger type

This is such a sad song... So beautiful.

i completely agree. i went all through high school jamming to this music and never really appreciating it. i came here on a quest to find something from my younger years that i didn't find repulsive (i used to listen to element eighty...) and was pleasantly surprised. this is one of my favorite nofx songs of all time and it remains to this day.

oh please, we've scene it all before.

It seems like at the end there sound be another chord, like to finish the song. But instead it cuts dead sorta, and on the album there is this silence. It's so eerie. It feels like Bill died right in the middle of his song.

theres a hidden track after

That's because of the type of chord. It ended on a tense chord usually resolved to a tonic

A Zenith!

I've said it once and ill say it again....NOFX fucking rules.

Thank's Great Cover, very good.

Thanks for approving my video ;) you rule.

can doggin in SF myself

experienced exactly the same man. now I realise I never understood the true meaning of their songs when I was a kid xD

Punk rules forever.

it was not ment to be rude sy

stop making a scene

pls do not call punk a scene it makes us sond like those scene kids

Leave the punk rock scene for 8 years then come back and listen to NOFX again, holy shit!!! A new appreciation for the musicianship and art of this band. These lyrics are poetic.......as a highschooler I never saw that, just fast loud cool music.

these old cats are just fucking awesome !
