lyrics
Every rocker knows
That girl at all the shows
Passing out her business card
Is just some fluff to be ignored
She's in promotions
She's only here to kick up noise
And make out with skinny boys
Whoever wants to take a pass
At some entry-level ass
With no emotions
You can't do shit for my act
You cannot sign me
They don't know who you are
In A&R
But still I pray you'll find me
In your heart
As I watch you throw yourself
At some shitty band
Who won't ever understand
How important you are
To them getting this far
Yeah, the girl in promotions
One side of the stage
Is the only real rock star
In all of L.A.
That girl at all the shows
Passing out her business card
Is just some fluff to be ignored
She's in promotions
She's only here to kick up noise
And make out with skinny boys
Whoever wants to take a pass
At some entry-level ass
With no emotions
You can't do shit for my act
You cannot sign me
They don't know who you are
In A&R
But still I pray you'll find me
In your heart
As I watch you throw yourself
At some shitty band
Who won't ever understand
How important you are
To them getting this far
Yeah, the girl in promotions
One side of the stage
Is the only real rock star
In all of L.A.
