Got To Rip It Off Lyrics - Axis Of Awesome

If you write your own music that has a similar sound 

To something somebody else had written, it might get around 

And then the lawyers will sue you for a huge fee 

It could be up to seven million baby, so take it from me 

Make sure you always remember this one thing above all 

Parody is Fair Use baby, so just copy it all 

As long as it's original, there's always a chance 

It'll sound like something already 

written, and they'll sue the pants off you

Used your music foo', Marvin, and that's alright 

It's perfectly legal. Fuck your copyright 

Why do you think that this genre belongs to you? 

There's so many blurred lines, but this is fair use 

You live in a glass house; you shouldn't throw bricks 

Just read Title 17 Section 107 of the Copyright Act of 1976 

We didn't even sample, I made this music myself 

No I won't be accused of being Thick, unlike somebody else

I think it's ironic they paid homage to you 

And they're the ones that you took to court, but it's us you can't sue 

Used your music, foo', Marvin, and that's okay 

It comes under Fair Use baby, so we'll never pay
