Just a Bonus Track - Radio Edit

This is just a bonus track
a lonely little song
bonus tracks can never find a place where they belong
the album says it doesn't fit
the other songs look down on it
even though the bonus track did nothing wrong
It did nothing wrong it's just a song

Oh, poor little bonus track
Oh, poor little bonus track

Once I met a lovely girl
I fell for her like mad
for a minute or two I was happy
for a year or two I was sad
She put me on
just like a song
and then she went away
guess I was just a bonus track in her album for a day
And yesterday
I heard her say

Oh, poor little bonus track
Oh, poor little bonus track

Now bonus tracks across the globe unite
bring all your poorly crafted chord progressions to the fight
because a bonus track that doesn't fit
can turn into a megahit
with just a little room to grow
bit by bit
this is it
it's a megahit

Oh, it's a megahit
a superdupermegahit
an international bestseller megahit
we are gonna get rich, it's a megahit, yes finally

Guys, we can do a lot better than this
Yes, he's right

'cause this is just a bonus track
will never be a hit
'cause the music we produce will always sound like shit
a midlife crisis bonus track
a desperate attempt
we made this song
we did nothing wrong
Yes you did
Yes
We did something wrong
It's a shitty song
Oh, it's a shitty song
Oh, it's a very bad song
It's a shitty song
What a horrible song

But in reality it's a megahit
I agree
I can feel it
Can I have a few million dollars in advance?
Just give me your bank account number
But let's not share the money with Pontus
No
Guys, I can hear you
It's a shitty song
Why do we always write shitty songs?
Yeah
