None of the YouTube links I can find have the opening line, but ‘Jimmy James’ by the Beastie Boys

Serve the Servants has a bit of this eh? Maybe more commenting on the success of the previous LP.

Hi to all the people that are selling me
Here’s one straight from the factory

And if these critics want to fight I’ll fight.”

first song on the first Hold Steady album:

We gotta start it off with a positive jam
We gotta start it with a positive jam, man
Gotta start it with a positive jam

All the sniffling indie kids: hold steady
And all you clustered-up clever kids: hold steady
And I got bored when I didn’t have a band
And so I started a band, man
We’re gonna start it with a positive jam
Hold steady

More like the end of the song than the beginning tbh, but I’m claiming that’s counterbalanced by throwing the name of the band in there three times.
