==''Lyrics''==

===U Stink Version===

''We see the pretty boys, we see the barbie girls,<br>Climbing their way up the charts''<br>''We see the videos,'' <br>''Where all the fashion plates''<br>''Lip-sync their ways to your hearts''<br>''<br>Well no offense to them,''<br>''And no offense to you''<br>''Don't take it personally''

''But when it comes to rock,''<br>''And when it comes to roll<br>Don't need to sell it,''<br>''<nowiki/>'Cause it's born to be free!'' <br>''(Free, free)''

''Don't want nothing but the music!''<br>''Don't need the shiny limousine!''<br>''Don't want nothing but the music!''<br>''Love it or leave it,''<br>''The music is all I need''<br>''<br>The TV interviews, the glossy magazines'' <br>''We see the stars' every move''<br>''The Grammys pilling up,''<br>''The money pouring in''<br>''But tell me, what does it prove?''

''<nowiki/>'Cause real rock' n roll,''<br>''Is all about your soul''<br>''So hey, when push comes to shove''

''Forget about the fluff,'' <br>''The music is enough''<br>''I'm sticking with the stuff'' <br>''That dreams are made of,''<br>''It's love!''

''Don't want nothing but the music!<br>Don't need no People Magazine!<br>Don't want nothing but the music!<br>I'm pledging allegiance,<br>The music  is all I need!''

''Nothing but the music!''
