Waiting to sell out


People ask us why we sing, they say we really dig your stuff
You must really love the things you do, is it enough
Youve all got university degrees that should be a start
You can get a job a car a life, do you do it for the love of art
Integrity and honesty usually mean poverty
Attention in the media wont buy financial solvency
Were just here to have some laughs we dont want to lead in fashion
We dont want a record deal as long as we get the cash in

Cuz were waiting to sell out
Our gnp is what were all about
Our budgets low, our costs are high
Without your help well surely die
My name is mike and I cant afford to eat
My name is trevor and I live out on the street
My name is chris..... (ramble on)

So if you..... buy our tape
So if you..... buy our tape
So if you..... buy our tape

Scat

Cuz were selling out thats what we do
Is ten dollars too much to ask of you and you and you
This is the last of us youll see unless we pay our puc (public utilities)

We give you laughter we work and slave
So dont be the bastard that never gave
Ten dollars can go so far, youll see us spend it at the bar
Buy our tapes or our cds, well pay the gst
Got no cash, what the heck, well even take a cheque certified of course....

Cuz were waiting to sell out
If you dont buy our stuff were going to pout
Think about this if you dont buy
Next set we sing american pie

(blah blah blah)

Cuz were waiting to sell out....
Oooooh.
