Testo Sold Out Shows - Beans On Toast
Testo della canzone Sold Out Shows (Beans On Toast), tratta dall'album Giving Everything
Don't you think they've sold out rock and roll
To a marketing campaign for a mobile phone?
Don't you think that it would be a shame
If every single venue was exactly the same?
Well, I like playing gigs, I like the people, like the crowd
I've been doing this for a long, long time now
But recently my gigs are all in corporate academies
And there's something about them that annoys me
Don't you think they've sold out rock and roll
To a marketing campaign for a mobile phone?
Don't you think that it would be a shame
If every single venue was exactly the same?
Four pounds eighty for a pint of Guinness in a plastic glass
You must be fucking joking, mate, you're having a laugh
The bar staff get paid pittance, they take money from your merch
And there's plasma screen TVs everywhere advertising stuff
Don't you think they've sold out rock and roll
To a marketing campaign for a mobile phone?
Don't you think that it would be a shame
If every single venue was exactly the same?
I understand it's just a sign of the times
There's corporate branding everywhere and no one seems to mind
But I can't be the only one who wishes there was something
Made for a reason that wasn't advertising
Don't you think they've sold out rock and roll
To a marketing campaign for a mobile phone?
Don't you think that it would be a shame
If every single venue was exactly the same?
