Football, is getting out of hand
I said, Football, is hard to understand
I said, Football, a fight between grown men
And I’m not talking on the turf field

Players, claiming their not that rich
Then the Owners, saying their life’s a bitch
You can say that, both of them have a cause
But to fans it’s one great big yawn

It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike
It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike
Millionaires calling each other some names
Trying to give each other one the blame…

It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike
It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike
Dollars and cents, instead of Super Bowls
As they argue about, where the money goes

The fans, are now getting quite pissed
I said, the fans, of the season they’ll miss
I said, the fans, who shell out all the bucks
Are the ones who are out of luck

Ratings are at an all time high
With the profits, that are going sky-high
Yet their fighting, in this economy
Do they deserve our sympathy?

It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike
It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike

Wish I could work three hours a week and get paid
Running back and forth, then drinking Gatorade

It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike
It’s what we call the N-F-L-Strike

And some don’t get dirty, they just kick the ball
Still getting Big Bucks, I’m appalled

Players, you know what you can do
And owners, the same words go for you too
It’s time to suit up or be replaced
There’s a better version in place

With graphics so realistic
That you can feel every illegal hit
Your replacement will soon hit all the shelves
Fox will just broadcast Madden 12

It’s the answer to your N-F-L- Strike
It’s the answer to your N-F-L- Strike

It has everything that we need to enjoy
And they don’t have to pay you boys

N-F-L Strike
It’s the answer to your N-F-L- Strike
Players, Owners the curse of Madden has stuck
Players, Owners now your the ones who are fucked

N-F-L Strike
It’s the answer to your N-F-L- Strike
Players, Owners you can all rot in hell
Or you can all go up North and play in the CFL
N-F-L Strike
