[ Featuring the Velcro Effect ]
Hey guys, I'm just back from Sound Control
And you'll never guess what I saw
An advert for Battle of the Bands
At the Cueball on Saturday, don'tcha knaw
We'll have to play real tight
Learn songs with all our might
Play solos outasight, at...
The Battle of the bands!
They all want to win
The Battle of the bands
It would surely be a sin
The battle of the bands
To not be blown away
At the gig on Saturday
All the top bands will come along
This really isn't funny
Gravey Ard Shift and Stevie Warchild
Will give us a run for our money
We'll be staying off the beers
The competition will be fierce
Let's hope the crowd don't give us jeers, at
The Norman Wisdom Cult will play doom metal
And Fackled their Metallica riffs
Substandard Pants Invasion
Have their poncey indie quiffs
We'll write some decent songs
Give up the joints and bongs
Not behave like dongs, at
