I Told You So (Corporate Rock Really Does Suck) Lyrics

Please tell me how to think
Please tell me what to say
Please tell me what to do
Please tell me how I should behave

Please tell me what to sing
Please tell me what to play
Please tell me how to act
Please tell me the rules of your game

Please tell me who I should be
Please tell me what to do
Please tell me how to please
I really want to be like you

Really done it now, sold out
But to who, what, when, where and how,
Yeah, really done it now, sold out,
I've taken my cut
And corporate rock really sucks

Don't try and tell me how to think
Don't tell me what to say
Don't tell me what to do
Don't try and tell me how to behave

Don't tell me how to sing
Don't tell me how I should play
Don't tell me how to act
I don't want to play to your game

Don't tell me who I should be
Don't tell me what to do
Its myself I'm trying to please,
Don't anyone, least of all, you.

Really done it now, sold out
But to who, what, when, where and how
Yeah, really done it now, sold out
I've taken my cut

Yeah, really done it now, sold out
But to who, what, when, where and how,
Yeah, really done it now, sold out
I've taken my cut

Yeah, really done it now, sold out,
But to who, what, when, where and how,
Yeah, really done it now, sold out
I've taken my cut
And corporate rock really does suck

Cover art for I Told You So (Corporate Rock Really Does Suck) lyrics by Carcass

this song is a joke song. its SUPPOSED to be funny. its carcass poking fun at themselves, and corporate rock bands that have a rebellious philosophy, but in fact are conforming to the mainstream. not only are the lyrics supposed to be funny, but the cheesy riffs and even the goofy ass pickscrape in the beginning of the song. they arent bashing corporate bands so much as they are making a hilarious song. carcass's humor is not always point blank obvious.
