Life and times of a bonus track
by Edguy
lyricscopy.com
Poor artist went to a label, truckloads of money in mind
Rich artist left the building
Cause all the labels had been standing in line
And so they signed
Artist wrote rock´n roll history
Concentrated on an album so strong
But business claimed limited editions
Insisting on additional songs
That was the time when I had been born
When I first saw the light of day
And even if you got a different opinion
From my point of view - needless to say -
That I´m happy to be
Even if you don´t want me to be
The world wouldn´t go round without me
I´m a bonus track on my way to Japan
And I´m gonna be spread on the Internet
I´m a bonus track, to Brazil and back
Enjoying worldwide fame
They´ll screw the industry, pay no royalty
Burn me on CD, all illegally
Chinese bootlegs, Russian piracy
Cuthroat Germans they all copy me
And I don´t give a shit, to me it´s all the same
As long as I get all the fame
And the girls know my name
I don´t give a fucking shit, no, I don´t give a shit
Don´t give a fucking shit, no, no...
Not a single little fucking shit
Oh this is it... This is it! It!
I´m a bonus traaaaaaaaaaaaack...
