lyrics

Hey there kids, it’s a rock ‘n roll party
Everyone put on your glitter clothes!
There’s an awesome band playin’ at the show club
While you’re passin’ by, wave… don’t ya know?

Four guys on the stage are sweatin’
You know they had to haul some heavy gear
They had to be there early for a sound check
They pay to play and have to buy their beer

They wrote a bunch of songs for you
They sent a bunch of emails for the show
Now they’re singing for two drunks
And a lady waiting for some food to go

Hey there kids, it’s a rock ‘n roll party
It’s something that you really ought to see
If you go on in and pretend to pay attention
The band will hand out CDs to you free

The singer is so satisfied
He’s happy that they finally hit their goal
They have one hundred Facebook likes
Someone streamed one of his tunes in Mexico

They’re working on their chops, all right
Their guitarist learned some jazz licks on the fly
Listen to them sail now
Here they go! Here they go! Check ‘em out!

They’re waiting for that elusive call
For that mega, outdoor college spring fest gig
They paid to submit their MP3’s
To an A&R consultant with the bigs

Now they’re back in their hometown and giggin’
And hoping for a write up in a ‘zine
But the paper threw away the disc
And the critic doesn’t know about that scene

And nobody cares about that frickin’ band
Nobody cares about that frickin’ band
Nobody cares about that frickin’ band
Nobody cares about that frickin’ band
