Beans On Toast Wave Goodbye to Emi song lyrics

Well the death of the music industry was slow but sudden

IPods came along, it felt like everybody got one

The record shops were burning and the kids downloaded more

And then they had to close Virgin Megastores

Well EMI was shitting it while drinking their champagne

Robbie Williams even shed a tear about the change

But the public couldn't give a fuck

Well they still heard the songs

And now they got to hear them on their mobile phones

You got a good song, you can make it, kid

That's all you've got to do

And without EMI it might be easier for you

Well, you can make your money selling merchandise

As we wave goodbye to EMI

Well, EMI have signed loads of bands in 77 years

The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Vincent Vincent and the Villains

And the people who were running things were making so much cash

They're the only ones who are scared that the ship is going to crash

And baby, when it crashes I bet the whole thing's going down

But that don't mean that any of the music will drown

Well, the poets and musicians will still be singing songs

We don't need as much money as Elton John

You got a good song, you can make it, kid

That's all you've got to do

And without EMI it might be easier for you

Well, you can make your money selling merchandise

As we wave goodbye to EMI

As we wave goodbye to EMI
