Song Lyrics by Eric Zimnicki
~·~
I want to start a band
where we understand
to exclude all the crap
that is played everyday
on the radio-waves:
the **** that just has no taste.
I think
we need more solo-bass
&
Musicians who play for themselves.
(try to conjure-up something so heartfelt)
You say, "**** record-labels," today?

I like Funk & Punk-Rock
...find it outdated?
You can **** my ****!
(& tickle my nuts)
Keep your judgemental-mouth shut!
This song's from deep in my guts...
Radio-  I've had enough
of your control over minds
& ears:
good-music is doomed now
for our future-years...
the 'status-quo'
has gone too low for me.

Play-  w/ Yourself
Rage-  w/ Yourself
Play for Yourself.
(and make it heartfelt)
You control all the young-minds
& ears:
good-music is doomed now
for our future-years...
the 'status-quo'
has gone too low for me.

Labels: I know you will win
but it's a sin...
And, I think that you're pedophiles
in my eyes
from ****** all the young-minds
and showing them the wrong-signs
(and all your lawyer's lies)
and lies: our tunes used to be legit.
You stuck your hooks
in our music
& you made it ****!
'Status-quo' has gone too low for me.

Play-  w/ Yourself
Rage-  w/ Yourself
Play for Yourself.
(and make it heartfelt)
You control all the young-minds
& ears:
good-music is doomed now
for our future-years...
the 'status-quo' has gone
too low for me.
The 'Status Quo'
has gone too low for me.
Yeah.

Listen-up, Kids:
·
Play w/ Yourself.
Rage w/ Yourself.
Play for Yourself
& make it heartfelt.
You control
all the young-minds & ears.
Good-music is doomed now
for our future-years.
The 'status-quo'
has gone too low for me.
the Status Quo
has gone too low
for me.
