Success Story Lyrics - Vol. 4: The Polydor Singles 1975-2015 - Who

Friday night, I'm on my way home 

They ought to make work a crime 

I'm home for the weekend 

I'm gonna make the most of my time 

There's a rock and roll singer on the television 

Giving up his music, gonna take up religion 

Deserted rock and roll 

To try to save his soul 

Saturday night, I got a gig with the band 

Playing the electric guitar 

Someday I'm gonna make it 

Gonna be a super duper star 

Get a big flashy car 

And a house for my Mum 

The big break better happen soon 

'Cause I'm pushing twenty-one

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Just like Cinderella when she couldn't go to the ball 

A voice said "I'm your fairy manager, you shall play the Carnegie Hall" 

I gotta give up my day job to become a heartthrob 

I may go far if I smash my guitar 

Away for the weekend 

I've gotta play some one-night stands 

Six for the tax man 

And one for the band 

Back in the studio 

To make our latest number one 

Take two hundred and seventy six 

You know, this used to be fun 

Monday morning, I just got home 

Six and the birds are singing 

I need a drink and my clothes are wet 

Oooh and my ears are still ringing 

There's a rock and roll singer bopping on the TV 

He used to be a preacher but now he sings in a major key 

Amended his decision 

To the new religion
