Animator Nina Paley Sings 'The Copyright Song'

Copying isn't theft.
Stealing a thing leaves one less left.
Copying it makes one thing more.
That's what copying's for.
Copying isn't theft.
If I copy yours, you have it too.
One for me and one for you.
That's what copies can do.
If I steal your bicycle, you have to take the bus.
But if I just copy it, there's one for each of us.
Making more of a thing, that is what we call copying.
Sharing ideas with everyone.
That's why copying is fun.
