-Phone rings
Fraternity Records
Uh, hello, uh, I-I haven't had any experience
But I've written a song that my mother thinks is pretty good
A-a-and I think you oughta record it '
Cause I'm sure all my friends would buy it
I'm sorry, we're not interested
But mister!
Sorry, kid, that's showbiz
While ridin' in my jalopy
I wrote a song last night
Bet you could sell a million copies
Just see if I'm not right
Won't you please record it, record it, please?
Sorry, kid, that's showbiz
It musta taken ten minutes
To write this big hit song
It's got a lotta gimmicks in it
You just couldn't go wrong
Won't you please record it, record it, please?
Sorry, kid, that's showbiz
But I've taken it around to guys all over town
I gotta find a company that wants to take a chance on me
Won't you please sign me and get behind me
And let me have a hit? I could, I know
Got a cool, cool crew
Who could back me on the side
Man, you'd really flip your tooth, mmm-hmm
You'll get goosebumps on your hide
If you just record it, record it, please
Sorry, kid, that's showbiz
Aw, come on
But I've taken it around to guys all over town
I gotta find a company that wants to take a chance on me
Won't you please sign me and get behind me
And let me have a hit? I could, I know
Got a cool, cool crew
Who could back me on the side
Man, you'd really flip your tooth, yeah, yeah
You'll get goosebumps on your hide
If you just record it, record it, come on
Sorry, kid, that's showbiz
Well, I guess I'll just have to start my own company, mister
What are you gonna call your company, son?
Well, how 'bout Flattery Label?
That's good, kid. That'll get you nowhere
