Last Week Tonight with John Oliver - Don't Use Our Song lyrics

[Ann Wilson] It's that time of year Campaign season's here [Michael Bolton] You'll wave and point and make your speeches While balloons fall everywhere [Usher] But we notice something's wrong And it's gone on way too long So we're asking you right now Stop using our songs [Dan Reynolds] [?] turn on your laser light show Fire up your confetti machine [Usher] Bring out your smile and backdrop Of ethnically diverse teens [Cyndi Lauper] Stop using our music That's our one and only rule [Sheryl Crow] We didn't write these songs To make your campaign stop seem cool [Chorus] Don't use our songs Cause you'll use it wrong It might seem appealing But you're just stealing Don't use our songs It just seems wrong By the time this song is through You'll be lucky if we don't sue Don't use our song, no [Usher] That's licensing. You gotta call my publisher, OK? [Ann Wilson] You always take our music Out of context anyway [Dan Reynolds] Why would Reagan be playing Born in the USA [Ann & Nancy Wilson] It's about Vietnam! [Michael Bolton] Thank you for not paying me That's a license you didn't buy [Josh Groban] If I wanted to sing and not get paid I'd be on Spotify Don't use our songs I mean, come on You knew we'd find out This is like the sixth time now Don't use our song It's not your song You're lucky we don't sue And what's he deal with all those balloons? Don't use our songs [Dan Reynolds] And just to be clearer You can't use this song either [John Mellencamp] But here's one tune we all agree That you can use any time for free [Cat playing organ interlude] Don't use our songs Won't sing along It might seem appealing But you're just stealing Don't use our songs For real, come on You're lucky we don't sue And what's he deal with all those balloons? The crowd might like it But you didn't write it
