My take on the current state of the recording industry, the formulaic nature of Top 40 Pop Music, and how I don't feel I fit in with anything currently going on in today's music scene.

lyrics

(Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't made for that!)

Homo, Heterophobic, baby
Words strung together, no rhyme or reason
talk about sex 'cause sex makes it sell
and if it don't sell, then what the hell
did you make this song for anyway?
There's no damn point without radio play
so auto-tune your voice away
You can't sing worth shit anyway

(Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't made for that!)

Welcome to the Haus of GaGa
Where mediocrity holds its' sway
Banality is where it's at
if you don't get that, then what the hell
did you think you got yourself into
When Timbaland came to the studio?
You're not an artist, get over it
You'll never go platinum that way

(Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't made for that!)

(Bill Hicks rants about shitty pop stars)

A radio friendly unit shifter
that's all we ever wanted from you
A dance beat usually does well
but this shit won't sell so who the hell
did you make this song for anyway?
Some girl you knew back in 8th grade?!
We don't pay you to be an artist
All you are is a media whore

(Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't... Your butt ain't made for that!)
