The Vandals - Behind The Music lyrics
Your rating:
Well we finished up the record And we think that it's the shit And we want it to go huge But to play it off legit And the guy at A&R's Got the CD in his car And he thinks that tracks four And six are contenders But the play lists are so tight That we gotta do this right But we've got a good feeling So we're gonna take a meeting With the radio promo And the marketing homos To see if we can get a green light So we waited by the phone And they finally let us know That the label is quote: "Really excited" This could be the big one Time to celebrate perhaps Our fate is in the hands of strangers Going gold or down the hole You can kiss my ass Sp we got a couple stations Wanted medium rotation But the P.D. isn't sure If the single's gonna work Cause he's gotta play the Cure And the Psychedelic Furs For the 80's flashback weekend And our ad's are in the trades And a video got made And it cost a hundred grand But we never got it played We're trying to hit the road But the agent doesn't know If there's enough in the budget For tour support So we're playing local clubs And we're trying to get a buzz And we got a good review in Music Connection This could be the big one Time to celebrate perhaps Our fate is in the hands of strangers Going gold or down the hole You can kiss my ass In a last ditch effort Just to rally up the troups We ignored our last statement Seven figures unrecouped Cause we're in it for the art But we'd like to see it chart In the Billboard Top 1000 So we give it our best shot And the label says your dropped And the drummer quit the band Now he's working for his dad Now we're holding auditions That boy's good Give him the job This could be the big one Time to celebrate perhaps Our fate is in the hands of strangers Going gold or down the hole You can kiss my ass
