You know it's kind of hard
Just to get along today
Our subject isn't cool
But he fakes it anyway
He may not have a clue
And he may not have style
But everything he lacks
Well he makes up in denial

So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway
He's gonna play the field, and keep it real
For you no way, for you no way
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world needs wannabes
Hey, hey, do that brand new thing!

He needs some cool tunes
Not just any will suffice
But they didn't have Ice Cube
So he bought Vanilla Ice
Now cruising in his Pinto, he sees homies as he pass
But if he looks twice
They're gonna kick his lily ass

So don't debate, a player straight

Sing with the song of Offspring, Pretty Fly (for A White Guy) lyrics!

You know he really doesn't get it anyway
He's gonna play the field, and keep it real
For you no way, for you no way
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world loves wannabes
Hey, hey, do that brand new thing!

Now he's getting a tattoo yeah
He's gettin' ink done
He asked for a '13', but they drew a '31'
Friends say he's trying too hard
And he's not quite hip
But in his own mind he's the,
He's the dopest trip

So don't debate, a player straight
You know he really doesn't get it anyway
Gonna play the field, and keep it real
For you no way, for you no way
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake
The world needs wannabes
The world loves wannabes
So let's get some more wannabes
Hey, hey, do that brand new thing!

Artist Information

Name:	Brian Keith Holland, Gregory David Kriesel, Kevin Wasserman & Atom Willard
Profile:	Brian "Dexter" Holland : Vocals, guitar Kevin "Noodles" Wasserman : Guitar, vocals Gregory "Greg K" Kriesel : Bass, vocals Adam "Atom" Willard: Drums Ron Welty : Drums, vocals (1987-2003) In 1984 the punkrock band Manic Subsidal started to perform. At that time the members were Brian Holland (vocals, guitar), Greg Kriesel (bas, vocals) and James Frederick Lilja (drums). James Lilja left the band in 1987 and Kevin Wasserman and Ron Welty joined and they now called themselves The Offspring when they were performing. In 2003 Ron Welty left the band and they had no drummer in about a half year, but Atom Willard joined the group in the ending of 2003. That's the reason why they used a studio-drummer, Josh Freese, on the Splinter album.
