Whispered; Stop Copying Me

G G F F
She lost her heart to the boys in the band,
F F G G
And everywhere the word she spread,
G G F F
With every track made, they want another new fan,
F F G N.C.
And one day the publisher said:
G
Stop copying me,
F
This songs mine,
C
You got last one free,
G
Youll pay next time,
G
I got ripped and burned,
F
When you heard me,
C
Now the worm has turned
G
Stop copying me
G G F F
I found another round robin just clogging up the mailbox,
F F G G
Stuffing all the holes in my head,
G G F F
With school plays, birthdays, trips around the Earth days,
F F G NC
Chuck it in the trash I said:
(Each line repeated by backing/ audience)
G
Stop copying me,
F
Youre not my friend,
C
If you press cc,
G
then you press send,
G
Why dont you call?
F
I might be free,
C
Pick up your phone,
G
And stop copying me
(Use barre chords to emphasis the key change)
C C
You know I got no space to hang around on Facebook,
G G
Or give my front page another tweak,
C C
With mindless wittering, another twat twittering
D D N.C.
If I communicate I speak:
G G F F
Plagiarisation, dissertation, I’ll nick another essay from the net,
G G F F
I been 3 years wasting, cutting and pasting, now Im £30 000 in debt
G
Stop copying me,
F
Lets use these words,
C
Unseal our lips,
G
Lets all be heard,
G
Take one deep breath,
F
The air is free,
C
In the time thats left,
G
Stop copying me,
F
Stop copying me,
C
Stop copying me,
G
Stop copying me!
