Hitsville UK

They cried the tears, they shed the fears
Up and down the land
They stole guitars or used guitars
So the tape would understand
Without even the slightest hope of a 1000 sales
Just as if, as if there was, a hitsville in U.K.
I know the boy was all alone, til the hitsville hit U.K.

They say true talent will allways emerge in time
When lightening hits small wonder
Its fast rough factory trade
No expense accounts, or lunch discounts
Or hypeing up the charts
The band went in, 'n knocked 'em dead, in 2 min. 59.

No slimy deals, with smarmy eels in hitsville U.K.
Lets shake'n say, we'll operate in hitsville U.K.
The mutants, creeps and musclemen
Are shaking like a leaf
It blows a hole in the radio
When it hasnt sounded good all week
A mike'n boom, in your living room in hitsville U.K.
No consumer trials, or A.O.R., in hitsville U.K.
Now the boys and girls are not alone
Now the hitsville's hit U.K.
