I want my
I want my MTV Now look at them yo-yo's that's the way you do it You play the guitar on the MTV That ain't workin' that's the way you do it Money for nothin' and your chicks for free Now that ain't workin' that's the way you do it Let me tell ya them guys ain't dumb Maybe get a blister on your little finger Maybe get a blister on your thumb We got to install microwave ovens Custom kitchen deliveries We got to move these refrigerators We got to move these color TV's See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup Yeah buddy that's his own hair That little faggot got his own jet airplane That little faggot he's a millionaire We got to install microwave ovens Custom kitchen deliveries We got to move these refrigerators We got to move these color TV's We got to install microwave ovens Custom kitchen deliveries We got to move these refrigerators We got to move these color TV's Look here, look here I should'a learned to play the guitar I should'a learned to play them drums Look at that mama, she got it stickin' in the camera man She's really turnin' me on And he's up there, what's that? Hawaiian noises? Bangin' on the bongoes like a chimpanzee Oh, that ain't workin' that's the way you do it Get your money for nothin', get your chicks for free We gotta install microwave ovens Custom kitchen deliveries We got to move these refrigerators We got to move these color TV's Listen here Now, that ain't workin' that's the way you do it You play the guitar on the MTV That ain't workin' that's the way you do it Money for nothin' and your chicks for free Money for nothin' and chicks for free Money for nothin' and your chicks for free Money for nothin' and chicks for free I want my I want my MTV |

52 posts | Awesome song!! One of the best I reckon. A friend was having drinks one night and as we were leaving, this song came on! I said, "Wait, guys! You have to hear this!" They all looked at me kind of blankly as I turned it up and started to play air-guitar to the intro - and then it got into it and everyone was like "Ohhh!!" but they didn't know the song very well and I was like, "Guys, you suck! This is classic rock!" But yeah they continued to be ignorant to the good old rock. 'Tis a shame.
Raise your glasses to Dire Straits! |
