Wrote a song, it was wrong from it's very first conception
|
Seemed I struggled on every line
|
It wasn't fast, wasn't pretty, wasn't serious or witty
|
The song that didn't rhyme
|
|
The band couldn't wing it, the singer couldn't sing it
|
The drummer's always out of time
|
The DJ's were offended, my union card suspended
|
Billboard declared it a crime
|
|
The melody blows in a key that no one can find
|
The lyrics don't flow but I can't get it out of my mind
|
A three minute waste of your time
|
On a song that didn't rhyme
|
|
It was bland, it was boring, all the groupies they were snoring
|
The first time we played it live
|
All the record guys got fired, the president retired
|
But somehow the song survived
|
|
The melody blows in a key that no one can find
|
The lyrics don't flow but I can't get it out of my mind
|
The melody blows in a key that no one can find
|
The lyrics don't flow but I can't get it out of my mind
|
A three minute waste of your time
|
No redeeming value of any kind
|
But thanks for the twelve ninety nine
|
On a song that didn't rhyme
