Keep it short and keep is sweet.

Don't subvert the paradigms,

Just make 'em laugh or make 'em weep,

But don't spout preachy diatribes.

 

Make it simple and make it clean.

Give the people what they want,

Like on the silver movie screen,

Watch 'em praise and watch 'em fawn.

 

Now don't be modest and do be vain,

It's what they've come to expect,

From big shot artists all the same,

Now cash that million dollar check.
