Submitted by B. Awesome
[INTRO:]
[A] [E] [D] [E] [A]
[A] [E] [D] [E] [A]
CHORUS:
I say[A] baby, it aint gonna suck it-[E]-self
Virgin Re-[D]-cords, it[E] aint gonna suck it-[A]-self
I say baby, it aint gonna suck it-[E]-self
What you[D] waiting for? It[E] aint gonna suck it-[A]-self
Well I flew[E] out from Virginie on the very first day
I heard my[A] record company exercise my pay to play
Went to[E] see Mr. Lott but his assistant said no
(Brandy) Se-[A]-curity will escort you to the parking lot
It was[D] 102 degrees I was feeling kind of hot
So I[A] walked across the street for one of those Mexican frozen popsicles
Couldnt[E] buy just one so I bought myself a box
When I come[A] back the assistant shes standing in the parking lot
No hard feelings do you want one of these?
But she looks at me like I was speaking Chinese
The security man walks up he helps himself to one
Coincidently Chinese and hot from standing in the sun
Then he helps himself to another he puts it in her hand
But she looks at it like it was a piece of crap
Or a dead and dying bird she didnt understand
So I was just[E7] trying to be helpful when I said…
CHORUS:
Baby, it aint gonna suck itself
Oh Virgin Records, it aint gonna suck itself
(Brandy) I beg to differ cousin, it should be, it aint gonna lick itself
I do believe youre right cousin: It aint gonna lick itself
Well Im standing in the parking lot waiting on my ride
His name is Jackson Haring and hes still inside
He went in through mailroom for some record company swag
But this Virgin Records there aint shit to be had
And the halls they was empty because everyone was laid off
And he took a wrong turn ends up in the tape vault
Only one thing to do when you?re standing face to face
With the Sticky Fingers, Let It Be master tapes
Youve got to stick them in the satchel and head on the down the hall
Saying these will go nicely with that Residents eyeball
Many years ago while working for Bill Graham Presents
A prop eyeball was stolen backstage from The Residents
And the rumor went around that Jackson was the thief
But thats neither here nor there and I was sitting in the jeep
Looking at the Sticky Fingers master tapes
My popsicle?s dripping on the seat so I throw it out the window – it lands at the feet of Roy Lott
CHORUS:
Hey Roy, it aint gonna suck itself
Ah Virgin Records, it aint gonna suck itself
And one time for the ladies, It aint gonna lick itself
Ah Virgin Records, it aint gonna suck itself
[INSTRUMENTAL: CHORDS AS VERSE]
CHORUS:
Baby, it aint gonna suck itself
Everyone at Virgin Records, it aint gonna suck itself
One for the ladies, it aint gonna lick itself
What you waiting for, it aint gonna suck itself
CHORUS:
Mr. Lott, it aint gonna suck itself
Everyone on Foothill Road, it aint gonna suck itself
Just so were not totally sexist, it aint gonna lick itself
Virgin Records, it aint gonna suck itself
