Sounds of Profit and Betrayal

Doors at six, band at eight
Buy another beer while you wait
Kds are ready to tear it up
Struggle against one another

Doors at six, band at eight
Buy another water while you wait
Since they support you
Why not give something back

Corporate sponsorship, it's bullshit
Corporate sponsorship, don't fall for it
Corporate sponsorship, it's bullshit

Corporate sponsorship, it's bullshit
Corporate sponsorship, don't fall for it
Corporate sponsorship, it's bullshit

With promising bills, like magic bills
They'll lobby you to join the fun
But soon you'll learn
Your skin will blister, crack and burn

At the touch of a Midas corporation
Feeling no touch of fan appreciation

Prisoners of a cultural Auschwitz
Stare with shame at blistered fingers that clutch
How metal as they watch their favorite bands
Admit to being part of this rape of the fan

Corralled and drained replace your brain
Selling us what they want
Up on the stage is all the rage
Sadistic marketing vision
