Still controlling in the format
Get in a rock show theres another fine reason get in a rock show get in a
Rock show
When the joker plays another joke
The smoker takes another toke
Stars keep fallin from the sky
People watch and don't ask why
Glasses broken
Love unspoken
When the other preacher comes and rolls into town
Your looking up your looking down
U don't own me u can't sell that
Still controlling in the format
Get in a rock show theres another fine reason get in a rock show theres
Another find re-ejected
U don't own me u can sell that

Theres another fine reject

About Grinspoon:
Seven albums, 13 ARIA nominations, over half a million records sold and a back catalogue etched into Aussie music history. They’re one of our most durable and, undoubtedly, best-loved rock bands – Grinspoon.
When it comes to the music biz longevity is an elusive beast. Put simply, Grinspoon are the premier rock band in the country. After playing 400+ live shows, seeing six consecutive albums debut in the Top 10, with multi-platinum sales across 25 years, it’s fair to say they’ve earned their place in Australian music history.
Grinspoon is Phil Jamieson on vocals, Pat Davern on guitar, Joe Hansen on bass and Kristian Hopes on drums.
