amount       of oil     that it takes to make a record.

All the shipping, the vinyl, the cellophane lining...

The acrylic, the varnish, aluminum tubes filled...   

      E                             E7 
with latex.        The solvents and dye.  Ohh oh ohh.

a bunch of 15 year olds made from dinosaur bones...

singing 'oh yeah'         again and again       right up til...

the end.   Lets just call this what it is.
