π Lyrics
Look, nobody in his right mind believes for a minute that an artist
Makes more money than the record company that's just not stacked up that way
If Michael Jackson sells thirty million units and makes an enormous amount of money
The record companies made ten maybe twenty times more
The artist doesn't make more money than the company
He's getting a corner of the action
The money goes to the company
The company is the bank
So any legislation that is involved in this is not sticking the money
Directly into the artist's pocket
If he winds up with a tid bit it's gonna be amazing
And he's gonna have to struggle for it
Because even the companies themselves can't even agree
On how the pool will be divided between them
Makes more money than the record company that's just not stacked up that way
If Michael Jackson sells thirty million units and makes an enormous amount of money
The record companies made ten maybe twenty times more
The artist doesn't make more money than the company
He's getting a corner of the action
The money goes to the company
The company is the bank
So any legislation that is involved in this is not sticking the money
Directly into the artist's pocket
If he winds up with a tid bit it's gonna be amazing
And he's gonna have to struggle for it
Because even the companies themselves can't even agree
On how the pool will be divided between them
