Reel Big Fish:One Hit Wonderful

From Lyriki

Fourteen minutes and fifty-nine seconds into our fifteen minutes of fame
When the luck runs out, I won't wonder who's to blame
Because nobody said they had a guaranteed way to win the hearts of the public who are easily swayed
And just this time last year, I thought we had it made

We were one hit wonderful
Living the life, playing the role
We were one hit wonderful

Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song

Well, things don't last long in life, that's how it goes, they'll smile and applaud, then turn up their nose
Things will shrink as quickly as they've grown
But it's perfectly normal for us to ask why company wasn't untrue, they just didn't try
And a new career is born, it will eventually die

We were one hit wonderful
Living the life, playing the role
We were one hit wonderful

Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song
That one song
That one song

So many lovely melodies
So many messages to convey
But they don't care about any of these
"Play that one damn song!" is what they say

We were one hit wonderful
Living the life, playing the role
We were one hit wonderful

Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
Oh no

We were one hit wonderful
Living the life, playing the role
We were one hit wonderful

Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song
