You said you liked musicians
And here I am, pretending to be one
You've put me in an awkward position
Because now you want me to write you a song
But I don't have the words or the knowhow
I'm only in this thing for the money
Anyway, take a look at yourself
You're not really that interesting, honey
I only learned to play guitar
To help me get a girlfriend
I wouldn't've cared if I'd learned the drums
My voice is kinda scratchy and annoying
But I vaguely kinda know how to strum
I've got no original thoughts of my own
So I Stole Them From The Radio
They say that step one to songwriting
Is to be as vague as you possibly can
The words you put to a tune
They must apply to every woman and man
So I'll shout the word "Hey!" a lot
Get everyone sounding all the same
And I'll call you my "baby" or "girl"
Yes, it's misogynistic without saying your name
I only learned to play guitar
To help me get a girlfriend
I wouldn't've cared if I'd learned the drums
My voice is kinda scratchy and annoying
But I vaguely kinda know how to strum
I've got no original thoughts of my own
So I Stole Them From The Radio
I'm only using three chords
And I've turned on the autotune
And just like when we make love
I'm doing it for somebody other than you
I only learned to play guitar
To help me get a girlfriend
I wouldn't've cared if I'd learned the drums
My voice is kinda scratchy and annoying
But I vaguely kinda know how to strum
I've got no original thoughts of my own
So I Stole Them From The Radio
