IT TAKES A MAJOR LABEL TO HOLD US BACK (lyrics)
-----------------------------------

Yeah, and we're gonna own your copyrights.

Yeah, we want your publishing.
We want your everything.
Because we got the marketing
and a focus group of pre-teens.
The producer gets 10 points,
co-writing credit on all of your joints,
big budget video …
of course, everything’s recoupable.
Then we’ll upload to
all the hip music blogs
and the cool chat rooms
conducting scientific exit polls
on your little dog and pony show.

Sign me! Sign me! Sign me! Sign me!

Transfer the ownership to your domain
All the rights
and the trademarks to your name.
Transfer the ownership to your domain
All the rights
and the trademarks to your name.

And then there's radio.
Rotation in a major market show
is gonna cost some hos
steak, martinis and some yayo
Round trip air-fare to
Miami, Las Vegas and Cancun
and then they'll spin our tune
of course, everything's recoupable.
Aint got your royalties
With all the promo copies
and the mp3s
just smell those cds burn
you owe us for breakage and returns
transfer the ownership to your domain
and the trademarks to your name
they're ours exclusive and worldwide
throughout the universe and in perpetuity.

Sign me! Sign me! Sign me! Sign me!

Transfer the ownership to your domain
All the rights
and the trademarks to your name.
Transfer the ownership to your domain
All the rights
and the trademarks to your name.

Pay me! Pay me! Pay me! Pay me! Pay me! Pay me!

(B3 organ interlude)

Better get legal advice
We get the sales from your tours and your merchandising
both your image and your likeness.
Better go and hit the road and make my money!
A rental van with a trailer hitch
genital chaffing and Motel Piss
with bad food, acne and jock itch
Your punk asses better have my money!
Just sign on the dotted line.
It's gonna be just fine.
Bathe in milk and wine.
Every minute, every hour, every time.
Limos day and night.
It's gonna be alright.
We've got it locked up tight
throughout the universe and in perpetuity.

Sign me! Sign me! Sign me! Sign me!

Transfer the ownership to your domain
All the rights
and the trademarks to your name.
Transfer the ownership to your domain
All the rights
and the trademarks to your name.
