Last Week Tonight, John Oliver - Don’t Use Our Song lyrics

It's that time of year
Campaign season's here

You'll wave and point and make your speeches
While balloons fall everywhere

But we notice something's wrong
And it's gone on way too long
So we're asking you right now
Stop using our songs

I say, turn on your laser light show
Fire up your confetti machine

Bring out your smile and backdrop
Of ethnically diverse teens

Stop using our music
That's our one and only rule

We didn't write these songs
To make your campaign stop seem cool

Don’t use our songs
Cause you'll use it wrong
It might seem appealing
But you're just stealing
Don’t use our songs it just seems wrong
By the time this song is through
You'll be lucky if we don't sue
Don't use our song, no

That's licensing you gotta
Call my publisher, oK?

You always take our music
Out of context anyway

Why would Reagan be playing born in the USA

It's about Vietnam!

Thank you for not paying me
That’s a license you didn’t buy

If I wanted to sing and not get paid
I’d be on Spotify

Don't use our songs i mean, come on
You knew we'd find out
This is like the sixth time now

Don't use our song it's not your song
You're lucky we don't sue
And what's he deal with all those balloons?

Don't use our songs

And just to be clearer
You can’t use this song either

But here's one tune we all agree
That you can use any time for free

Don't use our songs won't sing along
It might seem appealing
But you're just stealing

Don’t use our songs for real, come on
You're lucky we don't sue
And what's he deal with all those balloons?

The crowd might like it
But you didn't write it

Don't use our song don't use my song
