Shut up and write me a song
That makes me lots of money while I'm sitting at home
I want to hear it playing when the radio's on
I don't care where you get your inspiration from
Just write me a song

Look at me I play guitar
In a band that's gone quite far
And if you play the songs you know
You're gonna, gonna steal the show
Yeah, yeah
Look at me on MTV
On your television screen
That's not good enough for you
There's always something more to do

Stop lying
Just be honest
You're about to say it

Shut up and write me a song
That makes me lots of money while I'm sitting at home
I want to hear it playing when the radio's on
I don't care where you get your inspiration from
Just write me a song

Hey, we're writing something new
Sick of listening to you
We're deviating from the crowd
You gotta turn it up real loud
Yeah, yeah

Stop lying
Just be honest
You're about to say it

Shut up and write me a song
That makes me lots of money while I'm sitting at home
I want to hear it playing when the radio's on
I don't care where you get your inspiration from
Just write me a song
Just write me a song
Just write me a song

Stop lying
Just be honest
You're about to say it

Shut up and write me a song
That makes me lots of money while I'm sitting at home
I want to hear it playing when the radio's on
I don't care where you get your inspiration from
Just write me a song
A song (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
A song
A song (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Just write me a song
