This Song (Has Probably Been Played Before) Lyrics

Do you think I can get some of your hooks?
Do you think I can get some of your style mister?
Do you think I can get some of your hooks?
Do you think I can bank on your grooves?

I sit here all day long and try to write
the perfect song, rhyming workd, tangled chords,
Try to tune James's horns, much to hard,
More old school, we're
Too busy being cool
It's been so long since I've swung
Do you think this will be the one?

This song has probably been played before
These lyrics have probably been sung before
But I don't care!!
It's music
And it makes me happy

Do you think it was right of me mister
To add that harder edge of mine?
Do you think it was right of me mister
Not to rob Desmond Dekker that time?

I don't wanna play this live, enough of all that I-IV-V
Where is Rhodes?
No one knows
Play another lasting note.
Broken strings, set list blues,
here comes Rick with more bad news
Drive like mad to the show,
Didn't we just pass the exit?

No

This song has probably been played before
These lyrics have probably been sung before
But I don't care!!
It's music
And it makes me happy

Deal With it
If you don't like this song
I don't care
Cause I'll sing it anyway.

This song has probably been played before...
