One Hit Wonderful
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Fourteen minutes and fifty-nine seconds into our
fifteen minutes of fame
When the luck runs out, I won't wonder who's to blame
Because nobody said they had a guaranteed way
to win the hearts of the public who are easily swayed
And just this time last year, I thought we had it mede
We were one hit wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were one hit wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song
Well, things don't last long in life: that's how it goes
They'll smile and applaud, then turn up their nose
Things will shrink as quickly as they've grown
But it's perfectly normal for us to ask why
The company wasn't untrue, they just didn't try0
And a new career is born. It will eventually die
We were one hit wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were one hit wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song
That one song...
That one song
So many lovely melodies
So many messages to convey
But they don't care about any of these
"Play that one damn song!" is what they say
We were one hit wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were one hit wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
Oh, no!
We were one hit wonderful
Livin' the life, playin' the role
We were one hit wonderful
Well, it can't last long
They don't love you
They just love that one song
