NOFX - Lori Meyers Lyrics






Lori Meyers used to live upstairs
Our parents had been friends for years
Almost every afternoon we'd play forbidden games
At nine years old there's no such thing (as shame)
It wasn't recognition of her face, what brought me back was a familiar mark
As it flashed across the screen
I bought some magazines, some video tape scenes
Incriminating acts, I felt that I could save her

"Who the hell are you to tell me how to live?
You think I sell my body; I merely sell my time.
I ain't no Cinderella, I ain't waiting for no prince,
To save me in fact until just now I was doing just fine.
And on and on.."

"I know what degradation feels like
I felt it on the floor at the factory
Where I worked long before, I took control now I answer to me
The 50K I make this year will go anywhere I please
Where's the problem?"

    Rip Kim you rocked so hard

  34. h.... ....

    Technically this was my first exposure to Kim Shattuck, and I really liked her voice here, but I didn't look her up or know anything about her. Many years later an acquaintance shared the video for "Oh Nina" by The Muffs and I absolutely loved her energy and her screams. I have been a casual fan of The Muffs since then, but I really liked her style, she was so cool. This is a sad day.

  35. F.... P....

    RIP Kim

    Sad to hear of Kim’s passing. I liked the Muff’s but this is my favorite track of her’s. I saw her in 2013 with the Pixies. At first I was pissed Kim Deal had left just before the show. Kim Shattuck saved the night and didn’t miss a cord. It was an amazing show! She was a great musician and performer.

  50. J.... T....

    RIP Kim

  51. a.... ....

    R.i.p. Kim

  52. r.... ....

    This was my first introduction to Kim Shattuck. That was over 20 years ago. I always loved this song but never sought out The Muffs until a few months ago when I randomly stumbled across "Sad Tomorrow." It was like rediscovering my punk rock youth. I downloaded all their albums. I read interviews with Kim. I can't claim to be a superfan, but for whatever reason her death is hitting me hard. I felt connected to her in a way I can't explain.

    r.... ....

    me too..she was dope

    r.... ....

    The first time I heard The Muffs, I was first blown away, then fucking furious that I hadn't heard them earlier.

  53. p.... ....

    RIP kim, minha banda tocou mto o cover dessa música..

    RIP kim Shattuck - you can sleep now. Your body will no longer feel pain. Sleep tight. ❤❤

    c.... a....

    ALS is fucking awful, dude. I've seen people die of it. I'm heartbroken that she's dead, but you're right: it's a mercy in a way.

  62. J.... C....

    RIP, Lori Meyers

  63. J.... C....

    RIP Kim 💔

  64. C.... S....

    Rip Kim Shattuck. This guest spot was so important to my young eager music listening ears. You had one of the best punk screams ever.

    C.... S....

    I remember when this album came out and heard Kim...I fucking freaked out! I knew that voice from a thousand miles away.

    C.... S....

    so im not the only person who came to this song after hearing the news.. always loved her part of this classic

    C.... S....

    Fuck I didn't realize she passed. This just took the wind out of me. I just wanted to hear her vocals I fucking love her voice on this track now I'm just really fucking sad.

    C.... S....

    omg my heart

    C.... S....

    Hard agree. I'm fucking wrecked. RIP you amazing fuck, you.

  72. B.... K....

    Kim's vocals take this song from amazing to perfect.

    B.... K....

  84. T.... B....

    You Tube Sit And Spin!

  85. s.... ....

    One of the best NOFX song ever, too bad they can't play it live much at all, although the chick they got for their second live record did a great job trying to do as well as that legendary female post-punk singer from a band I shouldn't have forgotten the name of.

  86. l.... ....

    True punk!

  87. A.... M....

    So.now.what.

  88. J.... K....
