It Ceases to Be "Whining" If You're Still "Shitting Blood

Sing the fucking songs you told the world to sing
Sing it right unless you want to fail
Listen back and punch the things that we don't like
You can't do it right in just one take

Because you aren't good enough
You were never good enough to sing your own songs oh so perfect

If you fuck this up, you fuck the record deal
And respect of all our famous friends
Drift too far and it is inaccessible
Do it right! We worked as hard as you

And we didn't come this far
For you to fuck this up and fuck our whole lives

So write some songs with fucking hooks
Remember why you wrote songs in the first place
Let's start a band
This is all that you can do

Cut the cookie. Five sharp points to make a star
Cut the corners, get the biggest tours
Traffic violations mean bad credit now
Twenty triple zeroes in the hole

And it wouldn't be so bad
If we crashed the fucking van and watch our fucking debt go up in flames

You know, it wouldn't be so bad
If we just threw up our hands instead of feeding something
I did not want to create
Your underground is a mistake

So write one song without a hook
Remember why you wrote songs in the first place
Not for the band
You opened up for yesterday
