"Signing Elmo" Lyrics:

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 hanging out

Red Ferrari, Marty living 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

You're 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, ha! that'll 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, delivered 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!"
