lyrics

Something evil this way lies
Money and diamonds, a big surprise
(Out of my way, out of my way, I'm a hotshot)
Shot out of the cannon into dead ends
Hearsay, nostalgia- your only friends
(Playing to pay, paying to play, it's the big time)

Time to call it quits while those jeans still fit
The haircuts come,the haircuts go
The pre-release reviews were glowing
The winds of fate might cut you some slack
But you never know who else they're blowing

The devil makes songs for idle hands
The devil hand-crafted your cover band
(Heard it before, heard it before, what is the point)
Pointing out the problem is half the fun
Are you doing an encore? Five songs or none?
(A mentally ill, vicarious thrill)
Play one you wrote

Why not go it alone, start recording at home
Fill that creative hole with DIY rock and roll
Strive to be misconceived with your heart on your sleeve
But keep your distance from the battle of the bands
And you could be just like me, self-produce your CD
And watch as everyone just downloads it for free
