rate me

(feat. Jaret Reddick)

It's 2006, the consumer’s still pissed

Won't take it anymore so I’m writing a list

Don't try to resist this paradigm shift

The music revolution cannot be dismissed

$18.98 Iggy Pop CD?

What if I can get it from my sister for free?

It’s all about marketing Clive Davis, see?

If fans buy the shirt then they get the mp3

Music was a product now it is a service

Major record labels why are you trying to hurt us?

Epic’s up in my face like, “Don’t steal our songs Lars,”

While Sony sells the burners that are burning CD-R’s

So Warner, EMI, hear me clearly

Universal Music, update your circuitry

They sue little kids downloading hit songs

They think that makes sense

When they know that it’s wrong!

[CHORUS]

Hey Mr. Record Man

The joke’s on you

Running your label

Like it was 1992

Hey Mr. Record Man,

Your system can’t compete

It’s the New Artist Model

File transfer complete

I know I'm rhyming fast, but the message is clear

You don’t need a million dollars to launch a career

If your style is unique and you practice what you preach

Minor Threat and Jello both have things to teach!

I've got G5 production, concept videos

Touring with a laptop, rocking packed shows

The old-school major deal? It makes no sense

Indentured servitude, the costs are too immense!

Their finger’s in the dam but the crack keeps on growing

Can’t sell bottled water when it’s freely flowing

Record sales slipping, down 8 percent

Increased download sales, you can't prevent

Satellite radio and video games

Changed the terrain, it will never be same

Did you know in ten years labels won't exist?

Goodbye DVD’s, and compact disks!

[REPEAT CHORUS]

You know, we just wanted a level playing field.

You’ve overcharged us for music for years, and now we’re

Just trying to find a fair balance. I hate to say it, but...

Welcome to the future.

[REPEAT CHORUS]
