The Hook Lyrics & Chords By The Free Design

All the pretty young singers with their popular songs
Kind of short on meaning but the beat goes on
You really have to love them - but not for very long
They'd like to thank their managers
And fans, and friends and yawn...
We all fall asleep unless the chorus is the hook
Chorus is the hook, chorus is the hook
And the verse is terse and moody
But the drum machine can cook
Drum machine can cook, the drum machine can cook
He who wants to sell a million better have a mill' to spend -
Greenbacks, Euros, Swiss Francs or Yen
You could be a genius but you won't get far
If your face is better by the doorway in a jar
You really need an earring in your navel or your lip
Music, like photography, is art that you can
Clip, clip, cut in the digital domain
The essence of the thing remains the same
We all fall asleep unless the chorus is the hook
Chorus is the hook, chorus is the hook
And the verse is terse and moody
But the drum machine can cook
Drum machine can cook, the drum machine can cook
He who wants to sell a million better have a mill' to spend -
Greenbacks, Euros, Swiss Francs or Yen.
Money makes money in this made-for-T.V. world
Creation by committee stunts the growth of boys and girls
I miss the live musicians like Ringo Starr and Gadd:
Part of a dying race, but their samples can be had
We all fall asleep unless the chorus is the hook
