Текст песни Bomb The Music Industry! - My Response To An Article In Alternative Press

Here's the thing about the music business
The trick is playing trend rock right before the trend hits
Playing it right after means your band has missed the fucking bus and the kids have moved on

Here's the thing about the music business
You can't become an addict 'til you're fucking famous
If you do it backwards that just means your rent
Will be overdue and you'll have to keep a day jo

Get up Stand up Line up with the rest of them
All so different? I say you're all the same
Get up Stand up Line up with the rest of them
Safe You play it safe

Here's the thing about the music business
10, 000 records isn't much, if you consider the budget
Your promo, your parties, payola insures your shitty band will stay poor

Here's the thing about a nail in a coffin
It keeps that shit shut while it's six feet under
And zombies no one cares about don't get a chance to rise from the dead and make a vh1 special

And when I'm wrong I'll shut my mouth

If it's playing what you're into even though it's not the current trend, then safe we play it safe
If it's trying not to be boring to keep the audience interested, then safe we play it safe
If it's playing music that you like instead of what some label says, then safe we play it safe

But if it's pulling the shit you do every night

You're playing it safe You play it safe
