Temperance Lancecouncil - I AIN'T NO AI

We are in this together, they wanna replace
Our voice, our face, computer generate
And actors we see, the struggle is real, re-eal
Cause I-I-I, I-I-I

I ain’t no AI
You cain't pass me by
You cain't look me in my eye
And not see my pride

From the price of each acting class
No car fare for gas

But I made it, I made it

Doing all that wait staff work
Gotta find me a nice, clean shirt
My third call-back, I hit pay dirt

Cause I ain't no AI
You cain't pass me by
Look me in my eye
And see my pride

You see my joy is so high
Happy tears are what I cry
Causе I made it, I made it

Bussed it in from way down South
Last rеd-eye from the North
Picked up all my fly-over friends
Said goodbye to ma and kin

Tyrna make it, tryna make it

Crossed the ocean with a credit card
Daddy said it was gonna be hard
Been so hungry, star-star-starved

And I made it, I made it

Them auditions, they did me in
Finally scored my greatest win

I made it, you see I made it

But now ya telling me to go and pound sand
Replace your fellow man
For some AI, damn AI
Now is it gonna cry on that perfect cue?
Like I do, cause Quentin told me to
And it cain't give a speech thanking its mom and dad
And Howard Fine, who helped it shine
And as the world watch
And when the music starts
It cain't exit stage
In a euphoric state
Hey Mr. Studio Man
AI don’t understand
Collective bargaining
Cause it ain’t a human
I am the real deal
And my craft is real
And oh yeah the struggle’s real
And we got to close the deal
Cause we ain’t no AI
Don’t pass the actors by
Look us in the eye
Don’t make the thespian cry
