07. Song Of My Own

I WROTE A SONG FOR EVERYONE
BUT NO ONE LISTENS TO ME
A BEATIFUL SONG A PERFECT HIT
BUT NO ONE LISTENS TO ME
MY FAVOURITE RADIO D.J. SAYS
“I DO NOT LIKE YOUR SONG”
MY FAVOURITE RECORD LABEL SAYS
“YOU’RE OUT OF TIME”

I KNOW THIS SONG WILL WAKE YOU UP
AND MAKE YOU THINK ABOUT THIS MESS
ALL I WANT IS TO CHANGE THE WORLD
BUT A SONG CAN’T CHANGE THE WORLD

THIS IS NOT A SONG TO TALK ABOUT
THIS IS JUST A SONG OF MY OWN
THIS IS NOT A SONG TO BE PLAYED ON RADIO
THIS IS JUST A SONG OF MY OWN

I KNOW THE RULES OF MARKETING
AND GAVE SOME INTERVIEWS
WE MADE A VIDEO FOR MTV
TO SEE ME ON TV
MR. ZANTZ FROM FANTASY
HE PROMISED ME A FIRST CLASS DEAL
NOW I’M STILL WAITING DAY BY DAY
BUT I NEVER GOT MY DOUGH
