I'm a punk rock prom queen

Okay everyone, listen to Operation Ivy - I Got No. It's a short song, but listen to the last thing the singer says. When I was in high school, my friends and I had a HUGE debate over this song and what exactly was said at the end of it. I, like most sane people, heard "Alright" but there was this small group of people who thought he said "No way." I hadn't thought about this in years, but I put the CD on today and all the memories came back. Therefore I put it to you, bloggers of the world, to settle this debate once and for all. Please help me prove I'm right.

EDIT: This debate went so far that when my friends and I were backstage at the Warped Tour in 1999, we went around asking all the punk rockers what they thought was said at the end of the song. The best response was from Matt Freeman, the bass player in Operation Ivy, who just laughed at us. Can't win for trying.

He's totally saying "alright" or more literally "awwwight"
