Lyrics:You say I'm a hack; A one trick ponyNo acts to followAll the talent that I've gained is not mineIt's all borrowedBecause I'mI'm just a phony when I step on the stageIt's like a dark age; a crossfadeAnd I hear ya'll scream at me in rageOh look at this ya'll. Some half wit tryin' to step up his gameTryin' to pull himself up and rise above to greater acclaimBut fuck this fame shit. I'm doin' this for no one but meI'm like a Rarity; A diamond in coal. I'm gonna make you seeOne trick pony's only got one songOne trick pony plays it all night longOne trick pony's never tries something newOne trick pony could be me could be youOne trick pony's only got one songOne trick pony plays it all night longOne trick pony's never tries something newOne trick pony could be me could be you]You want this bar raised? I'll show you all the meaning of ferocityWhen I step on the stage. There's no copyin' me. No stoppin' me.A one trick pony? At least I know just what I'm good atWhile you're flailing on the ground just like a blank flankJust stop thatJust get back. There's more to us than meets the fuckin' eyeWe're not some rag tag duo to dissapoint. We will surpriseEveryone who tries to front and come at us . We've 'bout had itTime to make the crowd go wild with this track: That's just our fucking talent.One trick pony's only got one songOne trick pony plays it all night longOne trick pony's never tries something newOne trick pony could be me could be youOne trick pony's only got one songOne trick pony plays it all night longOne trick pony's never tries something newOne trick pony could be me could be youWe know our place. A talent made ours; There's no disgraceIn sticking to our guns. We're good at it. Puttin' smiles across the facesOf our fans and friends and family with our songs and our rhymesSo sublime. So just stop treatin' it as if it's a crimeCause in the long haul it's not about rising up to the fameIt's the journey and tale; Remember from where you cameAnd when you look back, you'll open your eyes and finally know meCause it doesn't matter no more. We're all just one-trick ponies.One trick pony's only got one songOne trick pony plays it all night longOne trick pony's never tries something newOne trick pony could be me could be youOne trick pony's only got one songOne trick pony plays it all night longOne trick pony's never tries something newOne trick pony could be me could be you

Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011.Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) Random Song Encounters Gene Vincent The idea is presenting a weekly random playlist of songs with commentary, and no specific ties to decade, genre, popularity, or anything else. Mostly from the world of rock and pop, but occasionally venturing into other musical genres when the urge strikes. Something to keep me occupied and out of trouble… Heroes and tales of Old Britain Lunapilot Beloved Britain celebrated in song. Some are humorous in intent, some merely in retrospect, some are just here because Wavlake doesn't have a "Random influences" category for albums and everyone's humour is different anyway! The subheading "Novelty" is probably a better fit as most of these songs you will only want to hear once! ;) Oh, all songs in this album were made using Udio.
