[Verse 1]

Hello, we are Fender

To our rules, you must adhere

We've overtaken Mohini Dey as bastard of the year

'Cos we were somewhat puzzled why our popularity's dropped

Our sales were underwhelming and our recent launches flopped


[Verse 2]

It must be smaller builders that are causing this sinkhole

Not our bad decisions or our Quality Control

So you must destroy your instruments, we're going full attack

Now go tell your distributors to send thе buggers back


[Chorus]

Oh, send the buggеrs back, send the buggers back

You think that's your S shape when we tell you it's our strat

It turns out our new CEO is a megalomaniac

All guitars belong to us, so send the buggers back


[Verse 3]

We've spoken to our lawyers and our plan has struck a chord

They think we found a way we can monopolise the board

Our bodies are no longer in the public domain

We'll eradicate all instruments 'til only ours remain


[Verse 4]

'Cos we're the apex predators

Small companies, the prey

Your guitars are owned by us, and this song by Peter Kay

So we're suing Leo Fender, and we're suing G&L

And when we're through with suing them, we might just sue ourselves


[Chorus]

Oh, send the buggers back, send the buggers back

You think that's your S shape when we tell you it's our strat

It turns out our new CEO is a megalomaniac

All guitars belong to us, so send the buggers back


[Outro]

All guitars belong to us, we're Fender, we are TWATS
