📜 Lyrics

Once in awhile, maybe you will feel the urge
To break international copyright law
By downloading MP3s from file-sharing sites
Like Morpheus, or Grokster, or LimeWire, or Kazaa
But deep in your heart, you know the guilt would drive you mad
And the shame would leave a permanent scar
'Cause you start out stealing songs, then you're robbing liquor stores
And selling crack and running over school kids with your car

So don't download this song
The record store's where you belong
Go and buy the CD like you know that you should
Oh, don't download this song

Oh, you don't want to mess with the R-I-double-A
They'll sue you if you burn that CD-R
It doesn't matter if you're a grandma or a seven-year-old girl
They'll treat you like the evil, hard bitten, criminal scum you are

So don't download this song
Don't go pirating music all day long
Go and buy the CD like you know that you should
Oh, don't download this song

Don't take away money
From artists just like me
How else can I afford another solid gold Humvee?
And diamond-studded swimming pools
These things don't grow on trees
So all I ask is everybody please

Don't download this song (don't do it, no, no)
Even Lars Ulrich knows it's wrong (you can just ask him)
Go and buy the CD like you know that you should (you really should)
Oh, don't download this song

Don't download this song (oh, please don't you do it or you)
Might wind up in jail like Tommy Chong (remember Tommy)
Go and buy the CD (right now)
Like you know that you should (go out and buy it)
Oh, don't download this song
Don't download this song (no, no, no, no, no, no)
Or you'll burn in hell before too long (and you deserve it)
Go and buy the CD (just buy it)
Like you know that you should (you cheap bastard)
