One Shot

This is it, my one shot at the big time,

Better make it count, stand up and be heard,

Cause I know if the radio plays this song

All the kids will buy it and I won't be cool anymore.

I've been doing this for the last twelve years,

Through all the times when no one cared.

Now everybody wants a piece of me,

Sign on the dotted line,

Make what's theirs is mine.

It'll make you rich you'll see

And there's a million more just like me.

I don't care what's cool anymore,

Who am I to say if you can't make that decision on your own

Then you're pretty fucking dumb anyway.

Generation, no motivation, remote controls and mtv,

A generation that hypnotized lulled by repetitious lies.

Spoonfed all of their corporate pro-gramming.

I'm not a one hit wonder looking to get rich.

I'm not trying to sell out my songs.

I was here before they exploited this scene

And I'll be here when they're dead and fucking gone.
