From the song "(We Are) The Nowtones," from the album Hello! My Name Is Blotto. What's Yours? by novelty band Blotto, 1979. It's a spoof of bland generic top 40 cover bands of the time. The song name checks real singers Linda Ronstadt and Joni Mitchell.

They're playing the T & A Lounge.

Lyrics:

We are the Nowtones,
We play Top 40.
We wear matching outfits,
we look real sporty.
