Write Your Own Song
You're calling us heathens with zero respect for the law
But we are only songwriters just writing our songs and that's all
We write what we live, and we live what we write, is that wrong?
Well, if you think it is Mr. Music Executive, why don't you write your own songs?
And don't listen to mine, they might run you crazy
They might make you dwell on your feelings a moment too long
We're making you rich, and you're already lazy
Just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs
Mr. Purified Country, don't you know what the whole thing's about?
Is your head up your ass so far that you can't pull it out?
The world's getting smaller and everyone in it belongs
And if you can't see that, Mr. Purified Country
Why don't you just write your own songs?
And don't listen to mine, they might run you crazy
They might make you dwell on your feelings a moment too long
We're making you rich and you're already lazy
Just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs
But we are only songwriters just writing our songs and that's all
We write what we live, and we live what we write, is that wrong?
Well, if you think it is Mr. Music Executive, why don't you write your own songs?
And don't listen to mine, they might run you crazy
They might make you dwell on your feelings a moment too long
We're making you rich, and you're already lazy
Just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs
Mr. Purified Country, don't you know what the whole thing's about?
Is your head up your ass so far that you can't pull it out?
The world's getting smaller and everyone in it belongs
And if you can't see that, Mr. Purified Country
Why don't you just write your own songs?
And don't listen to mine, they might run you crazy
They might make you dwell on your feelings a moment too long
We're making you rich and you're already lazy
Just lay on your ass and get richer or write your own songs
