mc lars – signing dubstep lyrics

narrator:
10 years later
in the city of los angeles…

agent over phone:
marty? marty?
we’re really counting on you
the youtube ad revenue is starting to dry up
so get back out there
and get us paid!

mc lars:
remember marty?
major label a&r scout?
made it to the top
now his luck’s running out
he can’t stay focused
life is getting harder
since his trophy wife ran off
with the founder of a start-up
“you’re as good as your last hit,”
but the well has run dry
marty makes excuses
and he blames spotify
the label press calls and yells
“marty, you’re fired,”
but after the divorce he can’t afford to retire!
for the next year, marty tries to find his way
moves into an ashram for two whole days!
drops outta cooking school and one month later
he’s on hermosa beach working as a waiter
then one fine morning at the crawfish shack
marty makes a plan to get his life on track
he sees a flyer on the wall while he’s on his break
for a dj set by his old friend blake

blake:
cry tonight
my hands around your hands
i won’t let you die tonight
my heart’s in your hands
i won’t let you–

marty:
hey man! it’s marty! it’s been a long time! what are you working these days?

mc lars:
blake and marty, they go for coffee
blake’s gained weight and he looks a little sloppy
he catches marty up on his last ten bands
and how hearts that hate is still big in j-pan
and that his dubstep remix of “cry tonight”
made the hype machine charts for one whole night
a hit is a hit, so marty makes a plan
to update blake’s image and reinvent his brand
marty puts $20k on his credit card
to help make blake the newest edm star
with a new website, agent, and stylist
he funds his new ep called “my name is cry-llex”
he dyes his hair black for his re-arrival
the new “cry tonight” video goes viral
blake gets a slot on warped tour and edc
with his turnt up set that the kids came to see

blake:
cry tonight
my hands around your hands
i won’t let you die tonight
my heart’s in your hands
i won’t let you–

radio dj:
and our number one song on the edm countdown, four weeks running! you guessed it–cry-llex! i don’t really get it, but this kid is everywhere!

mc lars:
momentum builds, but it all caves in
the label calls marty, he just can’t win!
the 360 deal blake signed in ’04
has been optioned by the label ten years more
blake can’t keep any cash from “cry tonight”
because the label still owns all the master rights
blake reinvents himself doing laptop rap
marty’s back to waiting dishes at the crawfish shack
marty’s back to waiting dishes at the crawfish shack?
marty’s back to waiting dishes at the crawfish shack

incoherent screaming

blake:
cry tonight
my hands around your hands
i won’t let you die tonight
my heart’s in your hands
i won’t let you cry tonight
my hands around your hands
i won’t let you die tonight
my heart’s in your hands
i won’t let you–
