Screeching Weasel - Compact Disc Lyrics

that thing you're listening to is called a compact disc it's method of conveying sound it's square outside inside it's round that thing you're listening to is a digitally accurate reading of the numbers that make up different sounds in fact it's the most technologically advanced sound reproduction known to man at least in the commercially viable sense that thing you're listening to is called a compact disc every subtle nuance of a time is made available to you that thing you're listening to is a high tech dream come true technically it works with laser beams yet you can learn to use it easily throw your scratched, dusty records in the trash it's time to move out of the past in the profit analysis sense that thing you're listening to is called a waste of time an inferior and overpriced product of an underactive mind that thing you're listening to is a multi-flawed industry scam dewvoid of any thought or heat at all it's the antithesis of rock and roll but no one cares that a record sounds better cause you just can't buy them so it just doesn't matter at all and that's common sense
