Blame It on the Tetons

@cord4 I went and found the original comment<br /> <br /> Here it is in all its glory:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> My first ever post on this site!!<br /> <br /> Blame it on the Tetons (Indians tribe, a tribe)<br /> Yeah, I need a scapegoat now<br /> No, my dog won't bite you<br /> Though it had the right to<br /> You ought to give her credit<br /> Because she knows I would've let it happen<br /> (Yeah I could bite the hand that feeds me but I won't even though I have the right to: who feeds the MM band..the label the record industry these days)<br /> <br /> Blame it on the weekends<br /> God, I need a cola now<br /> Oh, we mumble loudly<br /> Wear our shame so proudly<br /> Wore our blank expressions<br /> Trying to look interesting<br /> Blame it all on me because<br /> God, I need a cold one now<br /> (MM is maybe saying sure blame it on the crazy weekends, like a parent the label may be saying don't party so much, but it's like this man we are doing what we do that's why you signed MM but go ahead blame it on us....and yet give us free booze and shit supported tours by the beer companies)<br /> <br /> All them eager actors<br /> Gladly taking credit for the lines created<br /> By the people tucked away from sight<br /> Is just a window from the room we're bound to<br /> If you find a way out<br /> Oh, would you just let me know how?<br /> Would you just let me know how?<br /> (sure take credit for the hard work MM has done over the years before the industry had the hand on them, now we need to fit into a box that works for the label..let me know how to get out of this contract...but yet we MM may know we can't make as much without, MM the tribe has mouths to feed/shelter/cloth)<br /> <br /> Blame it on the web<br /> But the spider's your problem now<br /> Language is the liquid<br /> That we're all dissolved in<br /> Great for solving problems<br /> After it creates a problem<br /> Blame it on the Tetons<br /> God, I need a scapegoat now<br /> (now the songs and videos are on the web, youtube and or napster and the industry is hurting so they blame the losses on these new "problems" yet they don't look at the problem that it could be helpful then they do use the problem to help their gains and but through all that fighting MM the tribe maybe thinking why don't they realize who can own the rights to words, lyrics, music etc..)<br /> <br /> Everyone's a building burning<br /> With no one to put the fire out<br /> Standing at the window looking out<br /> Waiting for time to burn us down<br /> Everyone's an ocean drowning<br /> With no one really to show how<br /> They might get a little better air<br /> If they turned themselves into a cloud <br /> (everyone is burning everyone man.. the industry, the internet, the fans, the band...{burning both in meaning to the copying music and slang to burn someone} but does anyone really know how to survive or live without all this shit, maybe MM needs to lighten up says the Industry so to get more airtime on the radio.... and that would be good for all, oh but would it, maybe thinks MM that the industry should lighten up about what they perceive as better)<br /> <br /> [So the tribe being MM is only trying to survive and all they are doing and wanting is to survive by doing what they love, playing music together, but all this other shit gets into the way thus it eventually gets into the process of their music and they sing about it, like a poet who writes in ways so those in power may not get??]<br /> <br /> MM is an awesome band and I have no idea if this is what they meant by this song but I spent all drunken Sunday thinking about it! Till next time thanks for reading..<br /> Peace<br /> scapegoat<br /> WallsTV<br /> WallsTVon July 19, 2009
