Reel Big Fish:Don't Start a Band

From Lyriki

Don't start a band
Nobody wants to hear, nobody understands
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

I hate to ruin the magic, I hate to kill the dream
But once you've been behind the scenes then you'll know just what I mean

You might think that it's cool to get up on stage
And play rock and roll with your heart and soul
But when 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 one's gonna sing along with you

Don't start a band
No body wants to hear, nobody understands
Don't start a band
You will be so damn terrible, they'll all think your shitty and bland
Don't start a band
Oh yeah yeah yeah

'Cause you wont get paid
And you won't get laid, oh yeah yeah

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 your hand
And they kiss your ass 'cause they're making cash
And the business end will turn every friend
To an enemy, oh you will see

They'll turn their their backs and they'll be gone
Faster than can say, "what did I do wrong?"

Don't start a band
No body really cares, nobody understands
Don't start a band
You will sign your life away and then you'll be working for the man
Don't start a band
Oh yeah yeah yeah

Your message will get lost
You will be double crossed

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

Don't start a band
Don't even try, you will regret it, yeah
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

So just give up now
I'll show you how

Don't start a band!
Don't start a band!
Don't start a band!
Don't start a band!
