True Music Lyrics


well ouch! Last night I was bitten by the bug of success
they said your record's doing great, maybe it can even do better yet
so we made a video but I must admit it wasn't me
smiles and lies from the suits and ties that light the big blue screen
well I must admit for just one day
I let all that bullshit get in the way
but I won't do it again
I just want to play true music!
Well the reviews have been great, and I thank all the scribes so sincerely
from the smallest to the biggest fanzines I love you dearly
and college radio I support with all my might
don't tell me what they say in spin cause size don't make it right
but I must admit for just one day
I let all the bullshit get in the way
but it won't happen again
I just want to play ... true music
so don't call me about it on the phone
don't ask me when we're going gold

i'm trying not to think about being bought and sold
well some sell millions, some sell nothing at all
and i've done well, had success and stayed true through it all
but I never did want to own my own limousine
if music had a color, I know it wouldn't be green
well I must admit for just one day
I let all that bullshit get in the way
but it won't happen again
I just want to play .... true music!

Down by Law is a punk rock band formed in 1989 by former All frontman Dave Smalley, who is the only permanent member. The band has recorded 7 studio albums. They stayed on Epitaph Records until 1998 and have since switched to other labels. Down by Law has never achieved substantial commercial success, but a number of largely popular acts cite them as influential. After several lineup changes, the band went on hiatus from touring and recording in 2003, but resurfaced in 2008 before beginning work on new material and embarking on their first tour in six years in 2009.
