WE DO ALL THE STYLE
King Arthur (live on Prairie Home Companion

There's an office in a building in a mall on the Miracle Mile,
There's an office in a building in a mall on the Miracle Mile;
We got nothing of our own to sell
But if you do, we'll help you do it well -
You do the product, we do all the style.

There's a girl at a desk in the office with a beautiful smile,
There's a girl at a desk in the office with a beautiful smile;
She says, "Have a seat in the waiting room,
The boss stepped out, but he'll be back soon,
'Cause if you bring the money, we do all the style."

Yeah, we do the flash,
We do the bada bing bang boom,
Your product may be trash,
But soon there'll be one in every living room.

We can make a dirt floor sparkle like Italian tile.
We can make a dirt floor sparkle like Italian tile.
We've been in this business since ninety-three,
Selling your crap is our specialty
You build the factory, we do all the style.

(instrumental) (repeat bridge)

You be the bride and we'll walk you down the aisle.
You be the bride and we'll walk you down the aisle.
We can build you a website right away
Guarantee you a thousand hits a day,
Yeah, you do the content, we do all the style.

You do the product, you bring the money,
You build the factory, you do the content,
You do the work and we do all the style.

We're the ones who tell you all the clothes that you should wear.
We're the ones who tell you how you ought to comb your hair.
We'll even tell a mother how she best should raise her child.
We're the lords of fashion, baby, we do all the style.

We're the ones who tell you all what food is cool to eat.
We're the ones who sell you all the shoes upon your feet.
You believe we help rise above the rank and file.
We're the lords of fashion, baby, we do all the style.

We're the ones who tell you how your money will be spent.
We're the ones who don't care if you cannot pay your rent.
We're the ones who'll buy your soul with service with a smile.
We control the government and we do all the style.

we have finally got your number
we've got your hands tied behind your back
we have you skewered like a stuck pig rotisserie roasting
on a hellfire rivet rack
i'm sure it hurts more than what you're used to
a million laps of olympic track
and when we're through you will feel like new
as your will begins to crack

it's all a lie, and lies are in
we fill its head with thoughts so thin
our little pop-cultured frankenstein
strutting off the assembly line
its tailored purpose and sense of self
to taint the gene pool and suck the wealth
for all it's worth, who gives a shit
we do the style and this is how we do it

we'll speak our piece
a signal through the atmosphere
and into space
a voice so loud a god can hear
this lonely place
it echoes off the stratosphere
and through our race
of vagrant mutant hipster queers

strike a pose!

We do all the style
American conceit
Hipster to believe
Sui generis and unique

Keepers of the culture
Just like swooping junkie vultures
Paralyzed and sterilized and ossified
Egalitarian elite

We do all the style
We tell you what is real
Stay between the lines
invalidating what you feel

You're just people, units sold
If you don't do just what your told
You'll be categorized and ostracized and neutralized
So back in line 'cause
Rule 11 wins the day

It's in your head
It's in your head
And one more thing now pretty momma
Zed is dead

We do All the Style
by Ross Durand
song #100

An ordinary night in an ordinary bar
The set was over, take my shit out to the car
A suit and tie with Shades on in the middle of the night
Says, “We can help you out, boy, if you wanna do it right.”

“The first thing we’ll change, I think it’ll be the way you dress
You can play guitar a little, but we’ll do all the rest
A haircut and some new teeth, and some time down at the gym
We’ll have people wonderin f you really were him”

“ Would you like to hit the big time, be the next big thing
We can get you quite the band - we can fix the way you sing
We like that thing you do, can you do it for awhile
You do the words and music, we do all the style”

Says, “You need some ‘lectric geetar and beat so kids can dance
Get your picture in some magazines to give you half a chance
Some videos to go viral and a mash-up with some rap
We’ll show you how to get there, we can show you where it’s at.”

CHORUS

“That one song should be more blue
We’ll let you know more when we read the reviews
We can turn you into someone, you’ll see.”
I said, “Thanks just the same, I am someone, I’m me!”

The crowd had cleared, just the two of us there
He says, “I’m surprised, I think we’ve been more than fair.”
I just nodded him some thanks and said, “I’m doin’ fine.
You can keep your style, at least the songs are mine.”

I guess I coulda hit the big time, been the next big thing
Had a kick-ass band, used post to fix the way I sing
But I like this thing I do, think I’ll do it for awhile
I’ll do the words and music, you do all the style.
