The Lyrics
[intro]
You've never owned a radio
And never watched a video
(no no)
This situation's marginal
It's rather far from optimal
Haven't heard of The Doors
Or The Who or The Cure?
It's surprising for sure
'cause they're far from obscure
Well no one can know them all
But don't just write you:
Don't know the original
Don't know the original
Your knowledge is so minimal
(huh!)
It's bordering on criminal
(oh woah)
Not even a traditional?
You need a rock remedial!
Never heard "Yesterday"
Or the classics and greats?
Well I'm shocked and amazed
Do you live in a cave?
Well no one can know them all
But don't just write you:
Don't know the original
Don't know the original
Don't know the original?
(Blows our mind - there's no tellin' how your youth was spent!)
Don't know the original?
(LimeWire time! - or some other place: download!)
It's unavoidable - we cannot know them all
But those five letters* make an author's skin just crawl
When reading parodies it helps to know the song
Still not understood I see so you just write down
Don't know the original
(Blows our mind - there's no tellin' how your youth was spent!)
Don't know the original
(LimeWire time! - or some other place: download! now go!)
[solo]
Don't know the Major General?
You really are a mineral!
(ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!)
I know it's unintentional
(huh)
Perhaps you're dumb-dimensional!
(yeah yeah)
Don't know any by Queen
Nor The Beatles nor Cream
(But) you've got ev'ry CD
Made by Avril Lavigne!
Well new Pop 40 sucks to me - but I won't write I
Don't know the original
(Blows our mind - there's no tellin' how your youth was spent!)
Don't know the original
(LimeWire time! - or some other place: download!)
Don't know the original
(Blows our mind - there's no tellin' how your youth was spent!)
Don't know the original
(LimeWire time! - or some other place: download!)
Learn some new originals!
