Hardpan Song* (Bonus Track)

Bomb The Music Industry! had a contest to see who could write the best song using the instrumental version of "Vocal Coach". This was my entry. Upon talking to them later they said they loved it but they couldn't let me win. So fuck it, y'all can hear it.

LYRICS:
I've had a couple of thoughts about reaching 
To the top of the charts, yeah but to be
Perfectly honest I don't think that it's in the cards
I could blow up like Katy
Yeah or I could sing "Baby"
But my voice is gone by the very first song
So I'm yelling and screaming and wheezing along

I've gone as far as I can go
Yeah I've peaked and I've plateaued
And I can't get no higher unless I hire
A vocal (vocal) coooach
It's gonna take more than a feeling
I keep on bashing my head on the ceiling
And I'll never get through until I submit to
A vocal (vocal) coooach

I know it's not really fame til kids' moms know your name
So Deb* and Denise* can scrapbook** in peace
Cuz they won't hear a peep from me

Ultimate purity comes with obscurity
And I can't take me seriously to get that sense of security

I got advice yeah that I oughtta sing nice
Cuz wouldn't it be great to get paid?
Well I'm telling ya naw man, my talent is raw, man
And I'm just doing fine.
There isn't a problem, I'm making albums
Shit, I'm doing fine

I've gone as far as I can go
Yeah I've peaked and I've plateaued
And I can't get no higher unless I hire
A vocal (vocal) coooach
I'm not making it hand over fist
But I'm making whatever I wish
ASCAP, BMI don't have shit that I
Can spend when I get old
So why even try when, when I retire
I'll still be unknown 
When y'all say goodbye to BTMI!
I'll still be fucking broke
