Mr. Recordman Lyrics

Mr. Recordman, do you know who I am
Mr Recordman, do you really think I can
I've takin' a likin' to your game
I think we all, we feel the same
Is this a dream of is it real
You say you want to cut a deal
Mr. Recordman, do you know who I am
Mr Recordman, do you really think I can
Don't need much time to think about
I'm sure that you have got the clout
I only hope that you're my friend
And stand by me until the end
Mr. Recordman, do you know who I am
Mr Recordman, do you really think I can
Sell a lotta records 'n' tour 'round the world
Make a lotta money 'n' meet lotsa' girls
Mr. Recordman, do you know who I am
Mr Recordman, do you really think I can
It sounds like music to my ears
I've dreamed of this for many years
To sell a lotta records 'n' tour round the world
Make a lotta money 'n' meet lotsa girls
Have a lot of fun and hang with my bro's
'Cause these boys 'n' this band is all I know
If not for the money and not fot the show
Are you here for me of here for the dough

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Mr. Recordman reflects Klaus’ (one of the guitarists) thoughts about getting signed, making records and the music industry. That’s why they let him sing the song.

Its is about greedy record producers who are in it for the money.
