 1st Verse
It's  2006, the consumer’s  still pissed
Won't  take it anymore so I’m  writing a list
Don't  try to resist  this paradigm shift
The  music revolution cannot  be dismissed
$18.98  Iggy Pop CD?
What  if I can get it from my  sister for free?
It’s  all about marketing  Clive Davis, see?
If  fans buy the shirt then  they get the mp3
Music  was a product  now it is a service
Major  record labels why are  you trying to hurt us?
Epic’s  up in my face  like, “Don’t steal our songs Lars,”
While  Sony sells the burners  that are burning CD-R’s
So  Warner, EMI, hear  me clearly
Universal  Music, update your  circuitry
They  sue little kids  downloading hit songs
They  think that makes sense
When  they know that it’s wrong
Hey  Mr. Record  Man
The  joke’s on you
Running your  label
Like  it was 1992
Hey  Mr. Record  Man,
Your  system can’t compete
It’s  the New Artist Model

 2nd Verse
I  know I'm rhyming fast, but  the message is clear
You  don’t need a million dollars to  launch a career
If  your style is unique and  you practice what you preach
Minor  Threat and Jello both  have things to teach!
I've  got G5 production, concept  videos
Touring  with a laptop, rocking  packed shows
The  old-school major deal?  It makes no sense
Indentured  servitude, the  costs are too immense!
Their  finger’s in the dam  but the crack keeps on growing
Can’t  sell bottled water when  it’s freely flowing
Record  sales slipping, down  8 percent
Increased  download sales,  you can't prevent
Satellite  radio and video  games
Changed  the terrain, it will  never be same
Did  you know in ten years  labels won't exist?
Goodbye  DVD’s, and compact  disks!
Hey  Mr. Record  Man
The  joke’s on you
Running your  label
Like  it was 1992
Hey  Mr. Record  Man,
Your  system can’t compete
It’s  the New Artist Model
