Lyrics

I should have taken more time on this...but I didn't.


Got on at Bee Line, the exit, it’s a bummer
Didn’t get a ticket issued with the exit number
Now you’re chargin’ 20 bucks I gotta pay full toll
(this is bull****, hey)
Listen to what I’m missin’
The ticket giver wasn’t givin’
Now the Korn man’s livid
This fee is all out of proportion
My jaunt was considerably shorter
This is ****ing extortion
Can you prove to me where you were?
Can you show us any kind of receipt?
Don’t you have cameras all over this road
Why is the burden on ME?!

Fight the Power!
Front desk clerk shouter
Fight the Power!
Dwight Howard doubter
Fight the Power!
Chicken Parm devourer
Fight the Power!
You’ve got to fight this in Orange County

    I should've known that someday a Public Enemy parody would surface. I would've guessed 911 Is A Joke but you nailed this. Nice!

    Original song is from the first CD I ever owned - and great performance Rob - so this is instantly one of my favorite jingles you've ever done.

    Another gem from TIRB. I especially loved TK's story because I know exactly where this exchange took place. I have a condo not far from that exit and have had a run in or two with the attendants there. And it's a good thing he turned right to Emerald Dunes because if he turned left he may have ended up in Century Village and was never heard from again.

    It takes an audience of tens to hold Tone back. Great quick turn around Rob - 11:51 here you come.
