lyrics

I’m so sick and tired
Of feeding on falderal
I’ve taken in just about all
That I can

But it’s okay
‘Cause I’m here to regurgitate
All of the tripe I have ingested
And put it on your plate

All I’m itching for is some recognition
All I pine for is some radio air time

Gimme a chance (2x)
A chance to show to you
Gimme a chance (2x)
A chance to prove

We can walk like the other bands
Talk like the others
Write hooks like the others
Look like the others
Jump around like the other bands
Sound like the other bands too
Suck like the other bands do

They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery
Then my proclamation should make everybody happy
If apery loves company, then tell me where to sign in, please

Artistic integrity
Was murdered by criminals
Wearing subliminal
Eye make-up

But it’s okay
‘Cause I’m gonna celebrate
The day that techno inherits the planet
And wipes all our sins away

All I’m itching for is some recognition
All I need is for MTV to need me
You may say I’m bitter, but at least I’m not a quitter

Gimme a chance…
I’ll prove that we can

Walk like the other bands
Talk like the others
Write hooks like the others
Look like the other bands
Whine like the other bands
Sign like the others
Lip sync like the others
Drink like the others
Get cash like the others
Get ass like the others
Sell out like the others
Pout like the others
Jump around like the other bands
Sound like the other bands too
Suck like the other bands do
