Lyrics Bollywood - Liz Phair
I
was
trippin'
lookin'
at
my
portfolio
Wonderin'
how
I
was
gonna
make
enough
dough,
you
know
Called
up
a
friend
who
wrote
for
'One
Tree
Hill'
and
'Jericho'
He
had
a
job
for
me
and
check
it,
with
a
four-letter
company
(Get
it
on,
get
it
on)
Hey,
I
got
a
proposition
for
you
How
'bout
you
let
me
keep
my
profits
as
a
scorer?
Record
sales
are
shrinkin',
I'm
gettin'
poorer
I
got
a
kid
to
feed,
how
'bout
you
cut
a
deal
with
me?
Ha,
hey,
look,
Liz,
we
see
you
as
a
commodity
We've
been
with
you
since
day
one
and
that's
an
oddity
And
after
a
series
of
phone
calls
to
the
great
publishing
houses
O
Ursa
Minor,
I
reached
my
representative
who
pulled
out
the
(Contract)
From
the
File
Cabinet
(On
microfiche)
In
the
form
of
tablets
made
of
stone
(Then
he
said)
"Let
me
see,
it's
here
in
my
folder
Oh,
shit,
you're
twenty
years
older
Still
hot
but
gettin'
a
lot
colder
And
you
wanna
cut
a
what
with
me?"
"Lemme
tell
you
how
it's
done
here
in
the
Hollywood
Maybe
you
was
thinkin'
you
was
in
the
Bollywood
If
I
wanna
break
the
rule,
you
know
I
probably
could"
(C-B-S
has
gotta
R-E-S-P-E-C-T)
(C-B-S
has
gotta
R-E-S-P-E-C-T)
"Liz,
I'd
love
to
help
you
out
But
we
have
what
we
call
Standards
& Practices"
"In
legal
terms,
we're
referring
to
this
as
a
recoupable
interest
In
an
artist's
compositions
on
vinyl,
plastic,
digital
And
all
transmittable
airwaves
for
a
period
Of
no
less
than
six
or
nine
years,
in
all
territories
of
the
Earth
The
solar
system
and
the
known
universe"
And
I
replied
"Listen
here,
my
dear
little
Roni
Don't
you
give
me
no
phoney-baloney
This
is
not
'My
First
Pretty
Pony'
Don't
you
know
you're
fuckin'
with
me?"
"Oh,
it's
a
bad
day
for
the
pool
boy
Come
to
clean
and
discover
you,
boy
Face
down
and
feet
turnin'
blue,
boy
Now
your
eyes
are
closed,
you
finally
have
the
sight
to
see"
It's
all
mine
It's
all
mine
It's
all
mine
Na,
na,
na,
na,
na,
na,
na,
na
