Here's my contribution: Clockout... from Devo's "Duty Now For The Future"
(also on "Greatest Misses", I believe)
All right, clockout!

Down on the block.
Get ready, get set, 'cause we gonna clockout.

Down on all fours...
'Cause we gonna, we gonna, we gonna, we gonna clockout.
[repeat verse...]
Take my advice. Hear my decree.
I'm afraid the future's gonna be maintenance free.
I got the big brush for your bowl.
Baby, can't you dig my plea?
Gonna gag, unless we clockout.
No, no, no.
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official DEVO tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
