lyrics

We practice all day and all through the night
Working on our solos for our lengthy jam in "Slow Ride"
Got the tabs in our pockets so it all goes right
Feel the surge of the open mic

We're available for parties, weddings, & such
But to get us together might take a few months
And if "Candle in the Wind" makes you sad
We'll bring it back up with "Soul Man"
We're proud to be absolutely nobody
Oh we're a cover band.

Joey wants to play "Roundabout" but it's a bitch
We really need to stay with "Brown-Eyed Girl" and "Ballroom Blitz"
We'll take requests just as long as it's on our list
"The Heart of Rock 'N' Roll" is in our midst.

We're not getting off the stage till we're done
With a hearty monologue just before "House of the Rising Sun"
And even if we sound bad
A good song will make up for that
We're proud to be absolutely nobody
Oh we're a cover band.

Don't think it's just old-tyme stuff
Kids b-days we do the Macarena.
Sure we didn't write the songs
But we did pick the ones that we wanted to play
A hit parade, you can't go wrong
A little C, F, & G and you're on your way

(gratuitous guitar solo)

We're stuck in the middle of skill
You will always please a crowd with "Margaritaville"
Rock fantasies we once had
But now some of us are dads
We're proud to play "Louie Louie"
Oh we're a cover band.
