Why  can't I be on MTV?
Why  can't I be on MTV?
Why  can't I be on MTV?
Cos  they just  don't like me
Why  can't I be on MTV?
Why  can't I be on MTV?
Why  can't I be on MTV?
'Cos  I'm trying  to help you see
Corporate  capitalistic  pigs, all you  ads are fake
Keep  lying to the sheep out  there
But  I won't take the bait
Use  Pepsi and Nike, oh  and VH1
Calvin  Klein and Tommy Jeans make it look so fun!
By  using all of  the popular  bands
They're  selling out for more money
When  will  all of this  end?
Let's  exploit sex  and more through our videos...
 Chrous
Why  can't I be on MTV?
Why  can't I be on MTV?
Why  can't I be on  MTV?
'Cos  we won't  lose integrity
What  you like is popular 'cos  you have all the dough
Turn  the kids to zombies  they don't care 'cos they  don't know
Feed  us lies and greed and garbage  on the radio
There's  better music out there but you don't  want us to know!
 So  advertise through mainstream
movies,  show off your logo
Stick  it to some dumb pop
 superstar that everybody  knows
Totalitarian  America that's  just how it goes!
 play twice through)
Why  can't we be a  part of your game?
Why  can't we have your  fortune and fame?
Why  can't we all just  be the same?
'Cos  we're not clones and  we can think for  ourselves
