[Lyric] Labor of Love (The Connection (Garage Rock))

[Verse]
I got an e.p.i.p.h.o.n.e. through a v.o.x. AC15
We got a black oyster pearl Ludwig kit, it's a little beat up, but it does the trick. We got a couple of mics. We wrote a couple of songs in our little room out in the garage
The neighbors don't like it, but we don't care. We're just playing the songs that we want to hear. Someday we hope to get a record pressed, sell a few copies, and giveaway the rest

[Pre-Chorus]
That's how it goes when you play Rock N Roll

[Verse]
I know we'll never be on top of the pops, our friends say we're great, but the charts say we're not. We might pack a few heads down at the local bar as long as they got no cover charge. The pop blogs all call us the shit, and local radio man, they'll be spinning the disc
Well, that's all good, well and fine, but I said a sware, so I won't see a dime because the FCC won't let them play, so no royalty will come my way

[Pre-Chorus]
That's how it goes when you play Rock n Roll

[Chorus]
Yeah, It's a Labor (it's a labor, a labor of love) well, It's a labor (it's a labor, a labor of love) it's a labor of love

[Bridge]
The m.a.n.a.g.e.r. says we gotta have a meeting at ole Rum Bar. The label wants a meeting ASAP cuz the only units moved were promotional LPs. I just wanna be playing guitar on the front porch back at home. If I wanted a job, I would have gone to school and never gone down that road. If I wanted a job, I would have gone to school and never played Rock n Roll
[Verse]
Well, everybody's trying to make it big, and I just watch them all fall apart. They get a little bit of press in some local rag and think they're the next king of pop. Look out, boy, you're the big fish now, but it's a long fall from the top

[Chorus]
Yeah, It's a Labor (it's a labor, a labor of love) well, It's a labor (it's a labor, a labor of love) it's a labor of love

Yeah, It's a Labor (it's a labor, a labor of love) well, It's a labor (it's a labor, a labor of love) it's a labor of love
