well ouch! Last night I was bitten by the bug of success
they said your record`s doing great, maybe it can even do better yet
so we made a video but I must admit it wasn`t me
smiles and lies from the suits and ties that light the big blue screen
well I must admit for just one day
I let all that bullshit get in the way
but I won`t do it again
I just want to play true music!
Well the reviews have been great, and I thank all the scribes so sincerely
from the smallest to the biggest fanzines I love you dearly
and college radio I support with all my might
don`t tell me what they say in spin cause size don`t make it right
but I must admit for just one day
I let all the bullshit get in the way
but it won`t happen again
I just want to play ... true music
so don`t call me about it on the phone
don`t ask me when we`re going gold
i`m trying not to think about being bought and sold
well some sell millions, some sell nothing at all
and i`ve done well, had success and stayed true through it all
but I never did want to own my own limousine
if music had a color, I know it wouldn`t be green
well I must admit for just one day
I let all that bullshit get in the way
but it won`t happen again
I just want to play .... true music!
