Isn't for the money
No it isn't for the fun
It's a plan, a scam, a diagram
It's for the benefit of everyone
You gotta have a little respect
Subterranean ideals
Traditional neglect
Reflect on how it would make you feel
The cause - we're just doing it for the cause
No it isn't for the fortune,
It isn't for the fame
It's a scheme, a dream, a bartering
We want everyone to think the same
Because you know what you know is right
And you feel what you can't ignore
And you try so hard to point the blame
A shame - what are we doing it for?
The cause - we're just doing it for the cause
The cause - we're just doing it for the cause
Open your eyes don't trust these lies

I hope I'm the only person ever to hear this song and think it's a tribute to The Cos. Yeah, Bill Cosby and, yeah, I must be a fucking retard.
Haha funny idea :D It is definately not the meaning, but awesome guess.

HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I always said that!! As a joke of course. I always wanted to make NoFX shirts with a Pic of Cosby's face and it says, "We're just doin it for the Cos"

In my opinion this song is a mockery of such bands like U2, who are always talking about cure this save that, but in actuality they are swimming in dough.
It's definitely a funny song I especially like this:
"It's a plan, a scam, a diagram"
it's like wtf, was fat mike looking for a word that rhymes with scam, so he chose the first one that popped in his head, or is this whole song just a big joke
what are you retarded? this song is OBVIOUSLY about how they dont play music for money or for fame, just...well just 'cause. thats what they do. and the line about plan scam diagram is about how other bands are fucking produced to make money, jonas brothers were created to make little girls' vagina's tingle and make billions of dollars, its all planned, when they start, when they end. its a plan. its a scam. its a diagram.

Open your eyes, don't trust the incline.
"... don't trust these lies"

This is about all those (punk) bands who claim to be doing their stuff only for "the cause", supporting radical movements while signing major labels, letting the minterfear with their music, tours and output, becoming estranged from a diy punk/radical movement etc.

A similar song this one alway reminds me of is spermbirds' "only a phase". Mind you, the spermbirds song ist not aimed specifically at bands but at any participants to a diy movement that betray any convictions they may once have had while pretending not to.

What is a barterine? I think it's a scheme, a dream, a BARTERING. (like a trade or negotiation).
I could be wrong, but "barterine" is not even a word. At least not an english word.
