Mitch Benn And The Distractions - Boy Band lyrics

Ain't it funny how time flies Twenty minutes have gone by Since I met these other guys And we've already had a hit And you're listening to it And I'm sure you think it should be number one already I'm the one who can actually sing I wanna get up and do my thing But they say that I mustn't make the other guys look bad I'm the one who's quiet and shy They still let me sing but I don't know why And now the tune is wearing thin, the chorus should begin And we all sing the chorus together 'Cos we can't do harmonies yet And this song will stick in your head forever Though you try so hard to forget I'm the one they hired to dance When they offered me the chance To sing one verse I said no thanks And I'm the one who wrote the song I'm wondering where the money's gone And do I need these hangers-on? I'm the one that the chicks desire The one who sets their pants on fire I don't need these ugly losers standing in my way... I'm the one that the mums adore Are we going to split? Well I'm not quite sure But I think I'm going to slip away and sign a solo deal today So we'll all sing the chorus one last time Then we'll go our separate ways And we practised these harmonies for ages Oh well they weren't that good anyway Well I guess that it was fun while it lasted And at least we made number one For a minute we were all lucky bleeders But tomorrow we're signing on
