Payola coca cola running dry
Radio it's pre-programmed commercially controlled
Is it in your contract, the big marketing blitz?
You call you're A&R man he's up at the Ritz
He tells ya his cell phones on the fritz
Keep churning out the hits boys
You need a rock and roll contract
Sell your soul to reach the goal the label's got in mind
Well it's a smash get on tour and make some more cash flow
It's in contract when the record sales soar
You count MTV for the video support
But they tell ya their boy bands are war and The Real World starts at four
You need a rock and roll contract
We don't take time off on Sundays
We just want another number one
We don't get away on holidays
We just want another gold award
Now that you smell the greed
Do you still want a rock and roll contract?
Do you still need a rock and roll contract?
I guess I still need a rock and roll contract
It's in your contract you take it to the top
The money flows the bull shit grows never gonna stop
It's just rock and roll
It's in your contract its rock and roll to the bone
And you know you got it now
