The Lyrics
Hey I’m Paul Simon
And we’re really quite beside us
Me and Garfunkel have noticed
Plain White T’s, they sound just like us
Yes they do
Haven’t they got better things to do?
We swear it's true
Hey I’m Paul Simon
And the first time I was listening
I was really taken back
‘Cause it sounded so familiar
Oh those guys!
Oh it really took me by surprise
Those songs were mine!
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Plagiarizing me
Hey I’m Paul Simon
I know all my songs by heart
And they copied all the cadence
All the chords on the guitar
Those guys are good
They should write their own songs if they could
I wish they would
Hey I’m Paul Simon
And it shouldn’t really matter
Because they say imitation
Is the sincerest way to flatter
But come on
Can’t these guys come up with their own songs?
Let’s just move on
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Plagiarizing me
A thousand songs I’ve wrote so far
All about girls and love and bars
I’ve covered every topic I could say
Our fans would sing along with us
As me and Art got on the bus
Off to another city we would go
Paul Simon, that is me it’s true
And if I feel the urge to sue
The Plain White T’s will never be the same
They’ll catch the blame
Hey I’m Paul Simon
Please stop trying to sound like me
Please write songs that are original
And you’ll be making music history too
And please start sounding like you too
You can say whatever you want to
Hey there Plain White T’s here’s to you
This one’s for you
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Stop plagiarizing me
Plagiarizing me
Oh oh
OOOoohhhh
Oh oh
Ooooooohhhhh
Oh Oh
OOOoohhhh
OOOOooohhhhh
Oh Oh
