| <poem><i>We see the pretty boys, we see the {{W|Barbie}} girls,
| |
| Climbing their way up the charts
| |
| We see the videos,
| |
| Where all the fashion plates
| |
| Lip-sync their ways to your hearts
| |
|
| |
|
| Well no offense to them,
| | '''<u>Without Backstreet Boys</u>''' <u>'''With Backstreet boys '''</u> |
| And no offense to you
| |
| Don't take it personally
| |
|
| |
|
| But when it comes to rock,
| |
| And when it comes to roll
| |
| Don't need to sell it,
| |
| 'Cause it's born to be free!

| (Free, free)
| |
|
| |
|
| Don't want nothing but the music!
| |
| Don't need the shiny limousine!
| |
| Don't want nothing but the music!
| |
| Love it or leave it,
| |
| The music is all I need
| |
|
| |
|
| The TV interviews, the glossy magazines
| | ''We see the pretty boys, we see the barbie girls,'' |
| We see the stars' every move | |
| The Grammys pilling up,
| |
| The money pouring in
| |
| But tell me, what does it prove?
| |
|
| |
|
| 'Cause real rock' n roll, | | ''Climbing their way up the charts! '' |
| Is all about your soul
| |
| So hey, when push comes to shove
| |
|
| |
|
| Forget about the fluff,
| | ''We see the videos, where all the fashion plates,'' |
| The music is enough
| |
| I'm sticking with the stuff
| |
| That dreams are made of,
| |
| It's love!

| I'm pledging allegiance,
| |
| The music is all I need!

| <poem><i>[Verse 1 - Fern]
| |
| We see the pretty boys, we see the Barbie girls,
| |
| Climbing their way up the charts
| |
| We see the videos,
| |
| Where all the fashion plates
| |
| Lip-sync their ways to your hearts
| |
|
| |
|
| Well no offense to them,
| | ''But when it comes to rock, and when it comes to roll,'' |
| And no offense to you
| |
| Don't take it personally

| [Pre-verse 1 - Kevin]
| | ''Don't need to sell it cuz it's born to be free! (Free freeee!)'' |
| But when it comes to rock,
| |
| And when it comes to roll
| |
| Don't need to sell it, | |
| 'Cause it's born to be free!
| |
| (Free, free) | |
|

|
| [Chorus - Fern, Kevin, A.J., Brian and Howie]
| | ''Don't want nothing but the music! '' |
| Don't want nothing but the music! | |
| Don't need the shiny limousine!
| |
| Don't want nothing but the music!
| |
| Love it or leave it,
| |
| The music is all I need
| |
|
| |
|
| [Verse 2/1 - Brian]
| | ''Don't need the shiny limosuine! '' |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
| |
| Yeah once upon a time,
| |
| Turned on the radio
| |
| When I was feeling so down
| |
| (When I was feeling so down)
| |
|
| |
|
| [Verse 2/2 - Howie]
| | ''Don't want nothing but the music!'' |
| And all at once I heard
| |
| The future calling out
| |
| My heart filled up with the sound
| |
| (With the sound)
| |
|
| |
|
| [Verse 2/3 - Kevin]
| | ''Love it or leave it,'' |
| Might play a stadium,
| |
| Or audience of one
| |
| But one thing I know is true
| |
|
| |
|
| [Verse 2/4 - A.J.]
| | ''The music is all I need!'' |
| No matter who you are,
| |
| The music is the star | |
| [Pre-verse 2/4 - Nick]
| |
| And we're just here
| |
| To let the music shine through!
| |
| (Shine through)

| |
| (Need, yeah)
| |
|
| |
|
| Don't want nothing but the music!
| | ''We see the stars every move! '''When I was feeling so down!''''' |
| Don't need some hip and trendy scenes
| |
| (Hip and trendy scenes)
| |
| Don't want nothing but the music!

| |
| The music is is all I need!
