I Hate A Cappella Lyrics

There's a funky bassline
that really tares the roof of the place
but it would sound much funkier
if they played it with a bass
the singing all of the backgrounds
rocking as hard as they can
the harmonies are tight
the rhythm is allright
the only thing they need is a band

God, I hate a cappella
God, I hate a cappella

every bop, every doo-wha
every word they say
makes me jump out of my seat
so I can get away

play your favourite album
listen to the song you like best
take away the music
and a cappella's what's left
so if you wanna be famous
and be on MTV
if you wanna be a star
then learn to play guitar
and lose the choreography

God, I hate a cappella
God, I hate a cappella

nine inch nailes, and frank sinatra
prince and john coletrain
they're singing songs in ev'ry style now
but they all sound the same
some days I'm walking through this lonely town
I'll open up my ears
and find a light in ev'ry single sound
and suddenly appears
these college guys in coats and ties,
and as they start to harmonize
I try to get away

but then I hear those beats
but then I hear those beats
but then I hear those beats and all I want to say is:
SHUT THE f*** UP!
