Signing Emo lyrics

Artist  : Mc Lars 
Song : Signing Emo



 Send "Signing Emo" Ringtone to your Cell 

 
Once upon a time, in the city of Los Angeles...


"Marty, Marty listen to me. Bring me something
the kids will cry for. 

Get out there, and get us stoked!" 



Meet Marty, major label A&R scout, forty years
old, gut hanginh out. 

Red Ferrari, Marty livinh in L.A. bumps another
line to get through the day. 

Dumped by his girl, he paid for her liposuction,


His friends call him "Money", in his
introduction. 

And Marty knows nothing but claims to know it
all, 

Lose the flat screen TV if he drops the ball. 

YouÕre as good as your last hit, find the next
big thing. 

If he doesn't bring the bling, his cell phone
won't ring. 

What's the trend, what's new? What's a label
scout to do? Office life, Marty 11:32. 

The label pres. calls and yells, "Sign more emo!"


How about screamo? "If it sells, sign Nemo," 

"We're down 2%, and BMG knows, 

My Daughter likes Dashboard, so get me one of
those!" 

He checks AP.net, the Scout and more, 

yelling band names to his assistant through the
door. 

The kids like this, who cares if it's great? 

So he signs a band called Hearts that Hate. 



"Marty... we've got a hit." 



CHORUS 

Cry tonight. My hands around your hands. 

I won't let you die tonight. 

Cry tonight. My heart's in your hands. 

I won't let you... 



Hearts that Hate, Marty goes to their show, up in
the club and here we go. 

Marty sees a girl in a Simple Plan shirt with a
Senses Fail boy, thatÕll never work. 

He finds his label friends in the corner they
huddle, 

An emo cattle auction, they penetrate the bubble.


They talk about Victory and signing TBS, 

Dissing the same bands they just tried to
impress. 

So the lights go down, the crowd starts to
scream, 

Hearts that Hate have hit the scene. 

Blake on vocals, and lead guitar, 

He does a backflip, "Look how different we are!"


They show up at the studio to record it, 

A TRL, Billboard Modern Rock hit. 

They auto-tune Blake, but he can't tell. 

He says, "I've got perfect pitch, damn I sing
well." 

ProTools, Logic, cut, copy, paste, quantized
solos and quantized bass. 

Signed, sealed, deliver and sent, across the U.S.
and the single went... 



REPEAT CHORUS 



Momentum builds, but it all caves in. 

Industrial comes back, the pres. needs a NIN. 

Marty finds a new band called "Fetal Coil" 

And Hearts that Hate try to keep their fans
loyal. 

They re-work their sound for album number two,


As "Machines of Hate," but their career is
through. 

They break up and work pushing mops and brooms,


Blake gives guitar lessons in his living room.


Blake gives guitar lessons in his living room,


Blake gives guitar lessons in his living room.




"Can you teach me track five Mr. Blake?" 

"Hey, I wrote that song and it goes like this!"




REPEAT CHORUS
