It's a pleasure to meet you my friend, come take a seat at my desk
I gotta tell ya kid, the whole team is more than impressed
Your melodies soar and all of your choruses shine
The lyrics are sound and your voice is fundamentally fine
But face it,
If you wanna make it onto radio kid, you gotta do as I say
Change all the "hims" into "hers"
And just don't tell the world that you're... SHHH!
Happy to help, take my card, please think about what I've said
(Do do do, do do do do do)
But this is an industry where people make money
So your art has to sell
(Blah blah blah blah blah)
And you should never seek to challenge an audience
They buy what they're told and we never get it wrong
Go write us a non-offensive, tasteful, conventional song
Like this one
Girls like boys and boys like girls
And that's the way it should be forever
Welcome to Tinseltown kid, I'm gonna make you a star
(A star, a star, a star, a star)
You got the fire in your gut and everything that you need to go far
You're a talented guy, you could shake Hollywood to the ground
And with us on your side, plus your looks,
You're gonna conquer this town
But face it,
If you wanna break into this business kid, you gotta play the part
And you'll never play a leading man
If you let on to your fans the truth about who you are
Just remember that
Girls like boys and boys like girls
And that's the way it has been forever
Yeah, girls like boys and boys like girls
And that's the way it will be forever
On the radio
In Hollywood
On the TV shows
For the greater good

Think about the children
You wanted me to write a hit record for the radio
Are you never gonna get it?
The kids already know!
Some girls like girls, some boys got a boyfriend

We hold hands, make out and do all the things that lovers do
Some girls like girls, some boys got a boyfriend

Boys like girls (I like guys and they like me)

And that's the way it has been forever, yeah
Girls like boys and (Some girls like girls, some boys got a boyfriend)
Boys like girls (I like guys and they like me)

And that's the way it will be...
WHATEVER!
