Correction Lyrics Ceases to Be “Whining” If You’re Still “sh*tting Blood” by Jeff Rosenstock

Lyrics

Sing the f**king songs you told the world to sing
Sing it right unless you want to fail
Listen back and punch the sh*t that we don't like
You can't do it right in just one take

Because you aren't good enough
You were never good enough to sing your own songs oh so perfect

If you f**k this up you f**k the record deal
And respect of all our famous friends
Drift too far and it is inaccessible
Do it right, we worked as hard as you

And we didn't come this far
For you to f**k this up and then just f**k our whole damn lives

So write some songs with lots of hooks
Remember why you wrote songs in the first placе
Let's start a band
This is all that you can do

So write some songs with lots of hooks
Rеmember why you wrote songs in the first place
Let's start a band
This is all that you can do

So cut the cookie, five sharp points to make a star
Cut the corners, get the biggest tours
Traffic violations mean bad credit now
Twenty triple zeroes in the hole

And it wouldn't be so bad
If we crashed the f**king van and watched our f**king debt go up in flames
You know it wouldn't be so bad if we just threw up our hands
Instead of feeding something I did not want to create
Your underground is a mistake

So write a song without a hook
Remember why you wrote songs in the first place
Not to start a band
We've got nothing else to do

Let's write a song without a hook
Remember why you wrote songs in the first place
Not for a man
Who runs a f**king focus group

So write a song without a hook
Remember why you wrote songs in the first place
Not for a man
Who runs a f**king focus group

So write a song without a hook
Remember why you wrote songs in the first place
Not to impress
The band you opened up for yesterday
