Lyrics

Roll on Blank Tapes

Roll on blank tapes let nothing stand in our way
Roll on blank tapes we got nothing to say
Roll on blank tapes let nothing stand in our way
Roll on blank tapes

Home-taping is killing music don't you know?
Skateboarding is not a crime anymore
I bent drinks goat is creamy more
Drum machines have got no soul

Home-taping is recording music don't you know?
Skateboarding is not a crime anymore
A drink goes creamy is bent hope
Drum machines have got no soul

Roll on blank tapes we got nothing to say
Roll on blank tapes let nothing stand in our way
Roll on blank tapes
Roll on blank tapes

Something to say-y-y-y

Nothing to say-y-y-y

Home-taping is recording music don't you know?
Skateboarding was never a crime don't you know?
A bent drink's goat is creamy more
Drum machines could not have soul

Home-taping is killing music don't you know?
Skateboarding was never a crime don't you know?
A bent drink's goat is creamt more
Drum machines have not got soul

Roll on blank tapes let nothing stand in our way
Roll on blank tapes let nothing stand in our way
Roll on blank tapes without anything to say
Roll on blank tapes

Nothing to say
Nothing to say
Something to say
Something to say
Something to say
Something to say
