Cheap Shot



Cheap Shot

Well, the record company's goin' out of business
They price the records too damn high
And the boys in the band could use some assistance

Well, the record company's goin' out of business
They price the records too damn high
And the boys in the band could use some assistance
Get a daytime job just to get by

Well, the P.D.'s, they won't play the record
They're too worried about that book
And the D.J.'s, they all hate the song
But they're in love with the hook

So na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
I bet you've heard this song before
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Take your cocaine and hit the door

Well, folk rock, punk rock, power pop music
Turned out to be the latest trends
And there ain't no more progressive music
The business has put it to an end

Ol' _Rolling Stone_ has gathered some moss
No, they ain't what they used to be
They try to look like _Look_ with their political pages
And advertising all over TV

John Mellencamp
