Default Something To Believe In (Alt Lyrics)
Disclaimer : please enjoy this for the humor and don't take it seriously. Its greatly exgaggerated and does not reflect my point of view exactly but it was something that popped into my head and I found it hard to resist to not write this. And for the record I did buy the album as well as an import copy.

Something To Believe In

I lost all faith in Bon Jovi and their music too
I’m telling the boys that they can sing their songs to someone new
I lost all trust in the band, I watched the music turn to crap
They ruined the great songs that put them on the map

Tonight I'll listen to slippery,
Jersey and Faith through and through
I'll put on TLFR and pretend
This album rocks too

Jon has lost touch with his fans
Richie’s solos disappeared too
I was waiting for the two new tracks
I know you were too

Though I know it’s the early years
I'll listen to Bon Jovi and Farenheit
I’ll also put on Blaze and Stranger
Anything but This Left feels Right

If I don't believe in Crush, how can I believe in One Wild Night
If I don't believe in Bounce, how can I believe in This Left Feels Right
If there's nothing after These days, Why should I even care
When the band will give me this crap, I’ll just download from someone who shares

If Jon won’t sing like he used to, and Richie won’t play like he can
If all the songs have lost their rock edge and this album is supposed to be for the fans
If this is what we’re getting, Why should we even care
When the band will give us this crap, We’ll just download from someone who shares

Very clever

I don't personally agree at all with the message of the alt lyrics, but I do think it's very cleverly done HIH!!!
