One Hit Wonderful

Fourteen Minutes and Fifty-Nine Seconds into our
Fifteen Minutes of Fame
When the Luck Runs out
i Wont 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 made

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 and then turn up their nose
things will shrink as quickly as they've grown
but it's perfectly normal for us to ask why
and when 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...

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 lie, 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.
