《The Critic(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:13] Tell it like it is

[00:00:16] He gets up real early on his mornin drive

[00:00:20] Down to the office for his 9 to 5

[00:00:24] He drives a 94 2 ton economy car

[00:00:28] Loves to tell the local bands down at the bar

[00:00:32] That he's The Critic

[00:00:34] Yea I can hook you up I know everybody

[00:00:39] In the business

[00:00:40] He flunked junior high band

[00:00:42] He couldn't march in time

[00:00:44] He tried to write a song once

[00:00:47] He couldn't make it rhyme

[00:00:48] He went two or three chords on a pawn shop guitar

[00:00:52] He just never quite had what it took to be a star

[00:00:56] So he's a critic

[00:00:59] I work for the Gazette man I got a real job

[00:01:05] He did a 5-star column on a band he never heard

[00:01:09] He did a bluegrass review about an unkind word

[00:01:13] He thought it was time to ask his boss for a raise

[00:01:17] His boss said I can't even tell

[00:01:19] If anybody's even readin your page

[00:01:23] Yea

[00:01:27] So he thought and he thought a little more

[00:01:32] He caught a young hot star headin into town

[00:01:35] And then he hid behind his typewriter

[00:01:38] And gunned the boy down

[00:01:40] Here come the letters the e-mails

[00:01:43] The faxes they raised him to 20 000 dollars

[00:01:47] After taxes

[00:01:49] He's a happy critic

[00:01:53] He's rollin in the dough

[00:01:56] Man I could do this forever

[00:01:58] This is easy Everybody's readin my column

[00:02:01] Please don't tell my mom

[00:02:04] That I write the music column for the Gazette

[00:02:07] She still thinks I play piano down

[00:02:10] At the Cathouse
