Cover Band
We wanna hear you play that
We wanna see you dancin'
We wanna choose what we want
We wanna play that for you
Remind us of that concert
We'll take you back to that time
We'll sing along with ya all night
When we hear that we rock harder
(one, two, three, four)
Playin' in a covers band
We got groupies, we got fans
We get paid in food and beer
But it's all worth it when we hear you cheer
Playin' in a covers band
We dedicate an entire jam
To that song request we get
Learn, perfect, add it to the set
We wanna play Paul Kelly
We want you to play Khe Sanh
We wanna play Paul Simon
We want you to play The Nutbush
We wanna play The Beatles
We want you to play The Horses
What about if we play INXS
Shut up and play The Horses
(that's the way it's gunna be little darlin')
Playin' in a covers band
We got groupies, we got fans
We get paid in food and beer
But it's all worth it when we hear you cheer
Playin' in a covers band
We dedicate an entire jam
To that song request we get
Learn, perfect, add it to the set
Call a thousand venues, promote the band
Be as persistent as you can
Send some soundclips, prepare to be panned
Wait what seems an entire lifespan
Get one call back, make a plan
Pack down the garage, fill the van
Drive halfway across the land
Ensure you make friends with the doorman
In case you get jumped by a drunken caveman
Set up the amps, lights and mike stand
Check the levels with the barman
Out across the punters scan
Gauge the crowds attention span
Shuffle the set to match the klan
We've got your night in our hands
Rock all night for that superfan
Pack down, go home, repeat it all again!!
Playin' in a covers band
We got groupies, we got fans
We get paid in food and beer
But it's all worth it when we hear you cheer
Playin' in a covers band
We dedicate an entire jam
To that song request we get
Learn, perfect, add it to the set
Give it up for the man on bass
Give it up for the man on drums
Give it up for the man on guitar
Now give yourselves a cheer (YEAH!)
We thank you all for rockin'
(un, deux, trois, quatre)
Playin' in a covers band
We got groupies, we got fans
We get paid in food and beer
But it's all worth it when we hear you cheer
Playin' in a covers band
We dedicate an entire jam
To that song request we get
Learn, perfect, add it to the set
We wanna see you dancin'
We wanna choose what we want
We wanna play that for you
