Dead Kennedys — Pull My Strings

[Introduction to "California Über Alles"] [Spoken Words] Hold it! We've gotta prove we're adults now We're not a punk rock band... We're a new wave band [Verse 1] I'm tired of self-respect I can't afford a car I wanna be a prefab superstar I wanna be a tool Don't need no soul Wanna make big money Playing rock and roll [Verse 2] I'll make my music boring I'll play my music slow I ain't no artist, I'm a business man No ideas of my own I won't offend Or rock the boat Just sex and drugs And rock and roll [Bridge] Drool, drool, drool, drool, drool, drool My Payola! Drool, drool, drool, drool, drool, drool My Payola! [Verse 3] You'll pay ten bucks to see me On a fifteen foot high stage Fatass bouncers kick the shit Out of kids who try to dance If my friends say I've lost my guts I'll laugh and say That's rock and roll But there's just one problem [Chorus] Is my cock big enough Is my brain small enough For you to make me a star [Refrain] Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far [Refrain] Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far [Break] And when I'm rich And meet Bob Hope We'll shoot some golf And shoot some dope [Chorus] Is my cock big enough Is my brain small enough For you to make me a star [Refrain] Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far Guitar! [Guitar solo] Everybody, put your hands together! [Chorus] Is my cock big enough? Is my brain small enough? For you to make me a star Everybody sing it one time! [Chorus] Is my cock big enough? Is my brain small enough? For you to make me a star Shut up and dance, everybody! [Chorus] Is my cock big enough? Is my brain small enough? For you to make me a star [Refrain] Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far One more time! [Refrain] Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far [Bridge] And drool, drool, drool, drool, drool, drool My Payola! Drool, drool, drool, drool, drool, drool My Payola! Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen, we sure do love you, we'll see you next time, having a good time playing good and loud rock and roll
