Tenacious D The Cosmic Shame lyrics

So, um, if I was just gonna say one thing to y'all tonight
I'd say, set the artist free
I'm talking about this artist in here, set it free
I'm saying, quit your day job

Now, I know a lot of you people here, you're saying,
I can't quit my day job, I've got kids to feed, Jack, quit your day job
Focus on your craft, one time, before it's all over
You've died, you've squandered it, you fuckin' robots

Now after a couple years of you focusing earnestly on your craft
K G and I will swoop in, we will check out your progress
And we will encourage you to continue or we will say stop
And then seriously, you must stop
Or penalties will be created and enforced

'Cause listen this is the problem
Sometimes you follow your heart
Sometimes your heart cuts a fart

That's the cosmic shame, that's the cosmic shame

And I know what you are saying now
What makes you guys so fucking good?
I don't fuckin' know and I don't like it
I stay up going fuck, why can't everybody fuckin' have it?

'Cause this is the thing
Some people learn it on the streets
Some people learn it in the schools
Me and K G, we were fucking born with it, homes

Check it out
That shit came off the top of my fuckin' head y'all
Oh God, why? It's a cosmic shame!
