Song Lyrics

Richard is important
To Richard and his most important friends
He doesn't take phone calls
He sits in his office and pretends
He's Atticus Finch
He's everybody's mensh
When it comes to clients
He counts himself among the very best
But when it comes to stature
He only counts the size of other men's desks
He's counting every inch
He's counting every inch

And it's only entertainment
It's only entertainment
Don't make it so hard
Don't make it so hard

Amanda of the underground
Brings high art to her lo-fi sound
Her nifty hipster friends agree
A band's only as good as its scene
Save us Polly Jean
We know not what we mean

And it's only entertainment
It's only entertainment
Don't make it so hard
Don't make it so hard

Freddie's demographic grows,
Angry boys in baggy clothes
As critics eulogize the songs,
And record store clerks mourn along
And the years go by and the chords don't change
We're all Pat Boone by different names

And it's only entertainment
It's only entertainment
Don't make it so hard
Don't make it so hard
