lyrics

Wake up to smell the music and the money
Don’t you know the best things in life are truly free
But it’s he who pays the piper, who calls the tune to me
And it’s music in the money industry

Standing on our feet up here for hours,
Not quite what we wanted, but it might be what we need
Our voice may start to crumble, our fingers start to bleed
But it’s music in the money industry

But if it’s what you want to do, and if it’s who you want to be
Well there’s gotta be some string we can pull
To make some money in the music industry

Welcome to show biz, kid, down at the bar and grill gig
It ain’t makin’ it big, but a gig is a gig is a gig
And at the end of the day, we’re packin’ up to leavin’,
Counting our tips in the evening, thinkin’ how did it get this way?
(Instrumental)

Gotta learn to hustle for your money,
‘Cause honey don’t you know, it don’t grow on trees
And if you pay in peanuts, it’s monkey’s we will be
Making music in the money industry

Fall asleep to hear the angels singing
Every note is right where you’d dreamed to be
But until that devil’s fiddle pays the bills for me
It’s music in the money industry

Lots of folks like you and me
Who know there ain’t no guarantee
I guess we’ll have to wait around to see
And make some music in the money industry
Let’s make some music in the money industry
Let’s make some music in the money industry
Let’s make some music in the money industry

"The Dewars, I'd imagine, would suggest that you just sing along while they provide the soundtrack" ~ The Village Voice ... more
