Don’t Start A Band

Lyrics

[Chorus] Don't start a band Nobody wants to hear Nobody understands Don't start a band You'll be so disappointed That it was nothing like you planned Don't start a band Oh yeah, yeah, yeah [Verse 1] I hate to ruin the magic I hate to kill the dream But once you've been behind the scenes Well, you'll know just what I mean You might think that's its cool to get up on the stage And play rock and roll with your heart and soul But no one shows up and your songs all suck And there's no applause and no flying bras No girls will scream for you And no ones gonna sing along with you [Chorus] Don't start a band Nobody wants to hear Nobody understands Don't start a band You will be so damn terrible They'll all think you're shitty and bland Don't start a band Oh yeah, yeah, yeah 'Cause you won't get paid And you won't get laid Yeah, yeah [Verse 2] And even if you make it All the way to MTV I don't think you could take it All the bullshit and the greed Everyone is so fake when they shake you hand And they kiss your ass 'cause they're makin' cash And the business end will turn every friend To an enemy oh you will see They'll turn their backs and they'll be gone Faster than can say "What did I do wrong?" [Chorus] Don't start a band Nobody really cares Nobody understands Don't start a band You will sign your life away And then you will be working for the man Don't start a band Oh yea yea yea Your message will get lost You will be double crossed Alright! [Bridge] And if you think that the joy of playing Will keep you going through the years Wait till you're poor and frustrated And the fun just disappears Nobody cares what you have to say And no one's gonna listen anyway Rock and roll will bring you down And it will kick you while you're on the ground [Chorus] Don't start a band Don't even try, you will regret it, yeah Don't start a band You will be so disappointed That it was nothing like you planned Don't start a band Oh yeah, yeah, yeah So just give up now I'll show you how [Outro] Don't start a band Don't start a band Don't start a band Don't start a band
