Records Lyrics - Singles - Paul Conrad

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
