Playground bullies
It's a mafioso industry
Shake don artists and venues for lunch money
Victims to harass and sue
It's tantamount to cruel
Major labels thugs run the school
Playground bullies
It's a mafioso industry
But who is benefiting?
Not the makers of the art, just the picture frames
And whose who own the walls
Playground bullies
It's a mafioso industry
Copyright is your 'protection' from a masked enemy
But the mob makes the violence
Speakeasies pay up for permission unknown
Out of fear of retribution
Age-old cartels dictate the rules
"Stand in line and shut up"
Just ignore the bullies, like your parents said
Exist outside of their confines
