Paul Conrad – Records lyrics

Verse 1:

They used to write songs,
Now they make hits
Coz songs have no rights
In a pile of shit
You're not an artist
You just like to dance,
But dancing is to art
What rape is to romance
You can't teach an old dog new tricks
But the trick is telling new dogs they're worthless
If I'm worthless but I work hard
Does that mean I'm heartless or just less hard
Tell me the truth
Whose side you're on
If suicides an option,
Then write another song
And we can sing along,
We can sing along
We can sing along
When you're dead and gone

Chorus:

Take the records off the wall
Take them down and burn them all
You don't even have the time
And they don't listen anymore

So take the records off the wall
Take them down and burn them all
You don't even have the time
And they don't listen anymore

Verse 2:

Go on then
Read my obituary
But be wary of a bitch
If she's ordinary
She's just a popstar
That won a popquiz
Now she's popping all the pills
That she can find in showbiz
What's a facelift
When you're so faceless?
You'll just have to lift
Less money, looking ugly
Try and face it
Don't bother to show me your expertise
I know I'm no expert but you're just a tease
You think you're a god
Just don't pray to yourself
You'll realise your weakness
Prey on yourself
Put your headphones on
You better phone ahead
Send me a warning
Tell me music's fucking dead

Chorus:

Take the records off the wall
Take them down and burn them all
You don't even have the time
And they don't listen anymore

So take the records off the wall
Take them down and burn them all
You don't even have the time
And they don't listen anymore

Bridge:

Tell me the truth whose side you're on
We'll sing your songs when you're dead and gone

We can sing along
We can sing along
We can sing along
When you're dead and gone

We can sing along
We can sing along
We can sing along
When you're dead and gone

Chorus:

Take the records off the wall
Take them down and burn them all
You don't even have the time
And they don't listen anymore

So take the records off the wall
Take them down and burn them all
You don't even have the time
And they don't listen anymore
