[Verse 1]
The writer wrote
The singer sung
And they went broke
Turned down by everyone
Passed on by asylum
Met by BMG
RCA and MCA
And finally the big three
[Pre-Chorus]
And the writer said, “I wish you’d hire me”
But you don’t like hearing the truth
It’s all I got left, along with my debts
And lack of youth”
[Chorus]
She said, “Take no chances” (Take no)
“Just tell lies” (Tell no)
“Sell your soul in compromise”
“Take no chances” (Take no)
“Just tell lies
Don’t ask me why”
[Verse 2]
News spoke
The people gasped
The senate broke
While he was sittin’ on his big fat ass
Promises of heaven
Promises of hell
Guess this God’s the only God
That you can buy and sell
