i think it's time we got something straight
i'm tired of the radio blasting all the songs i hate
and i don't wanna have to listen to the same old station
when i'm working in the kitchen
i'm clocking out, going to the show
(hey geis, do you wanna go?)

"well, punk rock shows ain't for me,
i prefer downloads for free"

we recorded
we recorded this down in the basement
you downloaded
for free, cause that's how it's supposed to be
can't you see it's a revelation?
open music communication
cause some songs were meant to find you
i never liked what someone told me to

i never thought i'd eat my words
but lately, i've been getting off on shitty bands you've never heard
my friend sent the link to me
i downloaded their CD
and the best-slash-worst part is its free

"hate to say i told you so,
but the radio just blows"

how many times must i say these words to you?
until you see what's the matter with an average point of view
just remember what I'm telling you...
find the music that suits you
cause TV isn't always true
the radio edit may not be best for you
