Cell Out Lyrics

She asked me if I was a singer then called me has-been
She said she really like my band in the early 90's
I said stop saying those mean things, my ego is so fragile
And the she called me a poseur punk
Why don't I drink up and get the hell out
'Cause I'm a sellout

That berating kinda bumped me out so I left the prakside
I walked to my Volvo and noticed I had a couple slashed tires
But adding injury and insult to vandalism
Someone took a key to my door and boldly spelled out
You're a sellout

It says on the side of my car that I'm a sellout
I play a Korean guitar but I'm a sellout
I'm a sellout

What is the Meaning of Cell Out?

NOFX delves into the harsh realities of fame and the inevitable backlash that comes with it. The protagonist encounters a fan who initially admires his earlier work but quickly dismisses him as irrelevant and inauthentic. This interaction highlights the fragile nature of an artist's ego, exacerbated by public criticism. The narrative takes a darker turn when he discovers his car has been vandalized, with "sellout" etched into its side, symbolizing the ultimate betrayal from those who once supported him. Through this song, NOFX explores themes of identity, artistic integrity, and the emotional toll of being labeled a "sellout" by one's own fans. #FameAndFall #ArtisticIntegrity
