Playing Shows In Nuclear Bomb Shelters
Open up a bottle and save me a sip,
I'm gonna be there as soon as i can.
I got stuck in traffic, it's a bit of habit
so i'll ditch my car, and sprit the rest.
I hear the fans are there, our band ready to play
I haven't drank in days and I'm gonna black out.
Tonight we're gonna play your favorite songs,
Buy our T-shirts, buy our t-shirts!
Can't you see?
We're doing this for the money.
I'll have a few,
Then play another show in my friend's backyard.
I started to write my own song,
with a guitar, and a bottle of Rye
I showed it to my band and they thought,
it wasn't generic enough.
We better change it's sound,
then change our first album's sound too.
Then we gotta it get it on itunes,
only gonna sell it for at least 10 bucks.
Can't you see?
We're doing this for the money.
I'll have a few,
Then play another show in my friend's backyard.
It's not worth it,
I deserve this.
I'm not gonna play a show for 30 bucks tonight.
You're not going to hear anything original over
the radio waves these days.
Are you sure you wanna be a part of that?
Making music is about creating art. Not about who's more
popular. Playing a massive show is a dream for
everyone. But is that really a reality in today's music industry?
Great music is hard to find.
Great art is hard to find.
Can't you see?
We don't give a shit about the money.
We play what we want.
We'd love to play in your basement!
It's so worth it.
We all love this.
We don't give a fuck if we make nothing tonight.
We'll never play infront of 10, 000 people.
And we just don't give a fuck.
Open up a bottle and save me a sip,
I'm gonna be there as soon as i can.
I got stuck in traffic, it's a bit of habit
so i'll ditch my car, and sprit the rest.

I haven't drank in days and I'm gonna black out.
