Up and comers on the music scene
They got a million miles to go
You can hear their stuff on the Internet
And college radio

Local sensation in their home town
They always pack the hall
Got a My Space page to prove it
With pictures oif it all

(Chorus) And if they ever make some money
Gonna' buy some better gear
Get a bus with a plasma screen
And a big fridge, full of imported beer
Big fridge Imported beer

You know next month they're movin'
Got some gigs in Montreal
And if the whole thing don't pan out
They'll be home by the fall

Got a brand new site with the MP3s
And a demo in ProTools
Sure to make the big time
When they get out of school

(Chorus) American radio is pay to play
Lack of talent won't hurt you none
When you get old you can be a personality
And flog your life on VH1
Yeah...sell your soul on VH1

Now it's ten years later
And they're still on the scene
But you won't find them in The Rolling Stone
Or Billboard magazine

They got some hype in the local press
And their songs on the CBC
Don't amount to a hill of beans
In the music industry

(Chorus) And though they never made the money
Day jobs paid for some better gear
Plasma screen in a mortgaged basement
With a big fridge, full of imported beer
Big fridge Imported beer
