DON'T START A BANDDon'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 yea yea yeaI 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's its cool to get up on 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 youDon'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 your shitty Don't start a band Oh yea yea yea 'Cause you wont get paid And you won't get laidAnd 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 seeThey'll turn their backs and they'll be gone Faster than can say 'What did I do wrong?'Don't start a band Nobody 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 yea yea yeaYour message will get lost You will be double crossedAnd 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 anywayRock and roll will bring you down And it will kick you while you're on the groundDon't start a band Don't even try you will regret it yea Don't start a band You'll be so disappointed that it was nothing like you planned Don't start a band Oh yea yea yeaSo just give up now I'll show you howDon't start a band
