<- This is where the chomper line should go

Alright guys, you asked for it...

	REPEAT IT (sung to "Beat it")

You always go and post anything to the net
No copyright can stop you, I even bet
You'd post any source code, that you now could get
So repeat it
Just repeat it...

You're typing in the words that belong to the stars
You're playing with their rights
This ain't how "Weird Al" starts
There's attorneys in line
Just to state the charge
But repeat it (and you'll be hearing from them)...

Repeat it (repeat it)
Repeat it (repeat it)
Doesn't matter if they (C)-ed it
Show your big brother
Show Uncle Tim
It doesn't matter
If it's copied again...

Repeat it (repeat it)
Repeat it (repeat it)
If you get caught, just beat it!
Take it from records
Take it from books
It doesn't matter
if they call you crooks
just read it, type it, post it [pant pant!!]

[guitar interlude]

Repeat it (repeat it)
Repeat it (repeat it)
If it says (C), delete it!
Send it all over
Distribute, away
Even take lyrics
From young Michael J. ...

Repeat it (repeat it)
Repeat it (repeat it)
If they catch you, just eat it!
Don't pay no 'tention
to copyright laws
they were all written
for your ol' gran-pa's
Just read it, type it, post it...

Repeat it (repeat it)
Repeat it (repeat it)
Don't think you've been defeated
When someone starts yelling
"you've broken the law"
Point out the net
isn't publishing at all
and feed it, feed it, feed it...

[repeat ad naseum...]
