Corporation Rock

Hull

Do the Corporation Rock, do the Corporation Roll
No one gonna stop you, babe, now you're in control
Do the Corporation Rock, do the Corporation Roll
You can take all the knocks 'cause you got iron in your soul

When you was a baby, did you have it all planned ?
Did you map out your future in the palm of your hand ?
Make it with the music, get the people on their feet
Dancing to the music, you're really feeling sweet

Then you make it on the scene and suck up to the press
'Cause a small sensation, let the mugs do the rest
Hung up on your ego, one, two, three, four, five
Hit-records in a row, wow, now you really jive

You'd better form a company, big office in the town
And when you pay them a visit, they really know you've been around
And in the big outside world, you're still a household name
Like some kind of washin' up liquid or maybe just a dozy football game

Hey, be a big sensation, a million in a crowd
You used to be among them once, now you really been around
So corporate your music 'cause it's not music anymore
It's just the way that you use it, baby, and what you think it's for

Do the, do the Corporation Rock, do the Corporation Roll
You can take all the knocks, who got iron in your soul ?
Do the Corporation Rock, do the Corporation Roll
No one gonna stop it now, now you're in control

I was dancing at the Go-Go, good music on the stage
Seemed such a long time ago, it feels like an age
Dancing to the magic, a brave new world ahead
Don't think twice, it's alright, I heard somebody had said

So no one thought about it until it was too late
And now the Gates of Eden brothers and sisters, they're gonna have to wait
So corporate your music 'cause it's just muzak
It's just the way that you use it and abuse it and what other people think it's all about

Corporation, Corporation Rock, do the Corporation Roll
You can take all the knocks 'cause you got iron in your soul
Do the Corporation Rock, do the, do the Corporation Roll
We know you're nobody's fool, you're nobody's fool

Do the Corporation Rock, do the Corporation Roll
But you gotta find yourself sunshine before you know who's your soul

Do the, do the ...

Do it, do it!
