U-Stink Backstreet Boys

Verse 1

• '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 way to your hearts!'

• 'Well, no offense to them, 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 cuz it's born to be free! (Free freeee!)'

Verse 2

• ''The TV Interviews, the glossy magazines, Once upon a time, turned on the radio,''

• ''We see the stars every move! When I was feeling so down!''

• ''The letters piling up, the money pouring in, All at once I heard, the future calling out,''

• ''But tell me what that would mean! My heart filled up with the sound!''

• ''Cuz we all know rock 'n' roll, is all about your soul, Might play a stadium, or an audience of one,''

• ''So hey, when push comes to shove! But one thing I know is true!''

• ''Enough of all the fuss, the music is enough,' No matter who you are, the music is the star,''

• ''I'm stickin' with dreams are made of, And we're just here to let

• ''IT'S LOVE! The music shine through! (Shine through)
