lyrics

Don't pay attention this is background music
If you listen too long we might make you sick
The "real" rock star will be up in a minute
So don't pay attention this is background music

Look out everybody cuz here I come
I got fancy pedals, i don't need no drums
The kids, they come here, just having fun
But it's just background music so pay no attention

Don't pay attention this is background music
If you listen too long we might make you sick
The "real" rock star will be up in a minute
So don't pay attention this is background music

Every Wednesday night is New Year's Eve
And this is my Red Rocks so you better believe
I got the same exact tricks up my sleeve
so don't pay attention to them pay attention to me

Don't pay attention this is background music
If you listen too long we might make you sick
The "real" rock star will be up in a minute
So don't pay attention this is background music
