|
I started out underground, |
|
I was kinda like a seed |
|
I had no manager, booked my own shows |
|
Made the posters, and afterwards |
|
I sold CD's |
|
Then I made a song making fun of all the bragging |
|
And it brew up in like, not long |
|
Then I got signed to a deal, threw me out to |
|
L.A., Put me in the studio and told me [Chorus:] |
|
We want you to write a |
|
Pop Song We want you to write a |
|
Pop Song And make it sound like this |
|
Make it sound like this |
|
Make it sound like this |
|
Make it sound like this |
|
Make it sound like this |
|
Make it sound like this |
|
Make it sound like this |
|
Make it sound like this |
|
And do it for the kids! [Verse 2:] |
|
Cause the kids want hits |
|
They don't give a shit about the rhymes you spit |
|
They just want a nice beat that they |
|
All could rhyme to, with a chorus catchier |
|
Than swine flu times two! |
|
I know you like premo beats |
|
So you compose verses like they we're a |
|
Key note speech but... |
|
We just want you to be 3oh3! |
|
Mixed with |
|
Flo-Rida mixed with |
|
B.o.B Capiche? |
|
So make another |
|
Airplanes |
|
Or a song like |
|
Billionaire |
|
Either's fair game |
|
Do it or go down in flames |
|
Back to Maine you can beg mousse |
|
For spare change |
|
You can't sing! |
|
We'll auto tune it! |
|
Make it sound like someone else's music |
|
We brought writers who could make it sound tighter |
|
We could pull it all night baby [Chorus] [Verse 3:] |
|
No, I wanna do it for hip hop |
|
You know fresh to death like a bird in a zip lock |
|
There like |
|
Spose, you're not ****ing |
|
Rick Ross |
|
We want something more like |
|
Ke$ha, Tik |
|
Tok! I wrote a verse, and said listen to this shit |
|
They put their hands to their foreheads as |
|
I kicked it |
|
They're like, look, |
|
I don't think that you get it |
|
Nobody cares about your verse |
|
It's not 96 kid! |
|
I told them, look man, |
|
I'd rather had my wrist slit |
|
Than sound like every other ****ing singer in the business |
|
They're like, really |
|
SPOSE, you'd be that cataclysmic |
|
To make a couple songs for top 40 and rhytmic |
|
With hooks big enough to catch |
|
Moby Dick with |
|
And very few words with some melodies addictive |
|
If you're not up to the task, grab your bags |
|
Call a cab, its too bad because [Chorus] [Outro:] |
|
We want you to write a |
|
Pop So...ng |
|
We want you to write a |
|
Pop So...ng |
|
And do it for the kids! |
