Three Minute Boy

Here today Gone this afternoon Another tune We almost remember What's the story Sex and drugs again Business as usual The clock's already ticking La la la la When he was young Staring at the TV He watched the fun Happen to other people Now they scream As they run after him Like a dream Like Elvis and the Beatles A three minute song is all he wrote He only did it for a joke They played him on the radio From Tokyo to Timbuktu
