Play On Lyrics - Squeeze

(Difford/Tilbrook) 

He wants to be glorified 

And swallowed in fame 

He wants to be a hero 

Like Kurt Cobain 

Playing his guitar 

With it hung round his knees 

The tour bus syndrome 

The touring disease 

He stands like a soldier 

He's ready to charge 

The young girls he sleeps with 

Are all a mirage 

He wants to be wanted 

But doesn't know why 

Reality curtains 

Black out a blue sky

Play on play on and eat up the sun 

Pop up to London and soak up the fun 

Play on play on with gathering speed 

Its Saturday night 

As the ears start to bleed 

He wants to be famous a 

And fall when he's young 

Climbing up ladders 

Without any rungs 

Ill in the morning 

And wasted all day 

Looking demented 

With not much to say 

Photos 

He pulls out a woman 

From under his bed 

Her eyes are like cherries 

That spin in her head 

If he hits the jackpot 

He's in the top ten
