Punk Rock Classic - Remastered
I'm a radio joe of the biz called show
I'm a rockin' pop star with a get up and go
Rubbing elbows with the big wigs at my sold out shows
I've been on every cover, even Rolling Stone
Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
Conforming to the norm, straight out of the mold
Compromising each and every ounce of soul
I'm a doin' anything for the records of gold
I only want what I can hold
Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
We know that we'll never be better than
Mister Slick Superstar, David Letterman
I promise, we'll be perfect gentlemen
Just put us on the show, you'll regret us then
Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
Thank you very much, be sure to label us
We wouldn't want to cause a ruckus or a fuss
Just put us in the category of AOR, CHR, Top Forty or bust
Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
What I am is a picture on the TV screen
Don't make waves, don't make a scene
What I say when I play isn't worth a bean
I'm a video joe in Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
I'm a rockin' pop star with a get up and go
Rubbing elbows with the big wigs at my sold out shows
I've been on every cover, even Rolling Stone
Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
Conforming to the norm, straight out of the mold
Compromising each and every ounce of soul
I'm a doin' anything for the records of gold
I only want what I can hold
Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
We know that we'll never be better than
Mister Slick Superstar, David Letterman
I promise, we'll be perfect gentlemen
Just put us on the show, you'll regret us then
Put us on MTV
All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
Thank you very much, be sure to label us
We wouldn't want to cause a ruckus or a fuss

All we really need
Begging on our knees
Please, please, please, please, please
