D E D
Look at the world in disbelief
E D
You used to follow - now you lead
E A F#m
College has enlightened you
D E
And you are proud to be different
D E D
And like different bands - different types
E A
You ain't nobody's fool
A E F#m
It's like certain bands remind you of someone you hated
C#m D
'Cause they didn't wear the right clothing
A E
And there's only one true fashion
A E F#m
And a lot of the bands on the college charts are great bands
C#m D
Until they get signed. Then you hate them.
A D E A

Only the songs mattered to you
D E D
But now you're a D.J. and preaching that hype

"Corporate Rock Sucks"

"You know, college radio enlightens you"

It's supposed to serve as a means to expose new bands

Safe harbor for the underground

'Til the alternative becomes the popular sound
A E
The bands are good 'til they make enough cash
F#m C#m
To eat food and get a pad
D A
Then they've sold out and their music's cliché
D E A
Because talent's exclusive to bands without pay
C#m D A C#m D A
Know it all, know it all - Did you really listen to that song?

Could you ever write what you call wrong?
