Are you sure that's the song you wanted?
When a pirate's not engaged in his employment,
or downloading low-fi WhiteSnake mp3s,
His capacity for innocent enjoyment
Is just as great as that of you or me.
Our feelings we with difficulty smother
When the RIAA's duty's to be done.
Ah, take one consideration with another
Entertainment law just isn't any fun. Ohhhhhhhhh....
When the RIAA's duty's to be done (to be done)
Entertainment law just isn't any fun (any fun).
When the enterprising haxor's not a-haxing
When the bootleg maker's lost his VCR,
They love to watch a gibbous moon a-waxing
Or wish upon an early morning star.
When the ebook stealer's done with Harry Potter
He loves to buy a treat at Cinnabun.
Ah, take one consideration with another
Entertainment law just isn't any fun. Ohhhhhhhhh....
When the RIAA's duty's to be done (to be done)
Entertainment law just isn't any fun (any fun).
