Don't Start A Band (Best Of|Skacoustic) - Reel Big Fish

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 k**l the dream

But once you've been behind the scenes

Will you know just what I mean

You might think that's it's cool to get up on the stage

And play rock 'n' 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 cars

No girls will scream for you

And no one's gonna sing along with you

Don't start a band

Nobody wants to hear nobody understands

Don't start a band

You will be so damn terrible

They will think you're sh*t 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

And even if you make it

All the way to mtv

I don't think you can take it

All the bullshit and the greed

Everyone is so fake when they shake your hand

And they kiss your a** cause then they get 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 you 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 yeah yeah yeah

Your message will get lost

You will get double crossed

And if you think that the joy of playing

Will keep you going through the years

Wait 'til 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 'n' 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 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

Don't start a band

Don't start a band

Don't start a band

Don't start a band
