The Axis of Awesome - Got To Rip It Off lyrics
[The Axis of Awesome - Got To Rip It Off lyrics]
If you write your own music
That has a similar sound
To something somebody else had written
It might get around
And then the lawyers will sue
You for a huge fee
It could be up to seven million baby
So take it from me
Make sure you always remember
This one thing above all
Parody is fair use baby, so just copy it all
As long as it's original
There's always a chance
It'll sound like something already written
And they'll sue the pants off you
Used your music foo', Marvin
And that's alright
It's perfectly legal, fuck your copyright
Why do you think that this
Genre belongs to you?
Thеre's so many blurred lines
But this is fair usе
You live in a glass house
You shouldn't throw bricks
Just read Title 17 Section 107 of
The Copyright Act of 1976
We didn't even sample
I made this music myself
No I won't be accused of being thick
Unlike somebody else
I think it's ironic they paid homage to you
And they're the ones that you took to court
But it's us you can't sue
Used your music, foo', Marvin
And that's okay
It comes under fair use baby
So we'll never pay
Used your music
Stole it, used it, parodied it
That has a similar sound
To something somebody else had written
It might get around
And then the lawyers will sue
You for a huge fee
It could be up to seven million baby
So take it from me
Make sure you always remember
This one thing above all
Parody is fair use baby, so just copy it all
As long as it's original
There's always a chance
It'll sound like something already written
And they'll sue the pants off you
Used your music foo', Marvin
And that's alright
It's perfectly legal, fuck your copyright
Why do you think that this
Genre belongs to you?
Thеre's so many blurred lines
But this is fair usе
You live in a glass house
You shouldn't throw bricks
Just read Title 17 Section 107 of
The Copyright Act of 1976

No I won't be accused of being thick

Used your music
Stole it, used it, parodied it
