Well we finished up the record and we think that it's the shit and we want it to go huge, but to play it off legit.
And the guy in
A&R's got the
CD in his car and he thinks track 4 and 6 are contenders
Put the play lists are so tight that we gotta do it right
But he's getting a good feeling so we're gonna take a meeting with the radio promo and the marketing
Homo's to see if we can get a green light.
So we waited by the phone and they finally let us know that the label is
Quote "Really excited" [Chorus:]
This could be the big one, time to celebrate perhaps.
Our fate is in the hands of strangers-
Going gold- or down the hole- you can kiss my ass!
So we got a couple stations, we're in medium rotation but the
P.D. isn't sure if the single's gonna work cuz he's gotta play
The Cure and
The Psychedelic
Furs for the 80's flashback weekend
And our ad's are in the trades, and a video got made and it cost a hundred grand, but we never got it played and we're trying to hit the road, but the agent doesn't know if there's enough in the budget for tour support
So we're playing local clubs, and we're trying to get a "buzz" and we got a good review in "Music Connection" [Chorus:]
This could be the big one, time to celebrate perhaps.
Our fate is in the hands of strangers-
Going gold- or down the hole- you can kiss my ass!
In a last ditch effort to rally up the troops we ignored our last statement- 7 figures unrecouped cuz we're in it for the art, but we'd like to see if chart in the billboard "top one thousand"
And we gave it our best shot, but the label says we're dropped and the drummer quit the band, and he's working for his dad
So we're doing auditions - [Chorus: x2]
This could be the big one, time to celebrate perhaps.
Our fate is in the hands of strangers-
Going gold or down the hole- you can kiss my ass!
