Three Minute Boy
Here today
Gone this afternoon
Another tune
We almost remember
Whats the story
Sex and drugs again
Business as usual
The clocks already ticking
La la la la
When he was young
Staring at the tv
He watched the fun
Happen to other people
Now they scream
As they run after him
Like a dream
Like elvis and the beatles
A three minute song is all he wrote
He only did it for a joke
They played him on the radio
From tokyo to timbuktu
A three minute boy, aint that somethin?
They named their children after him
The good times rolled beneath his feet
He skipped along the one-way street
Shes a pretty girl
She dont know how it started
She made a movie
He almost remembered
She measured up
They moved into a basement
Were so in love!
They giggled to the nation
La la la la
Three minute millionaire they said
The numbers rattled round his head
They spun him three times round the globe
She waited patiently at home
And all the pretty girls wanted him
In places that hed never been
Too much love will do you in
Forgive forgive forgive forgive
Yeah yeah ooo
Three minute kid is here again
Surrounded by three minute friends
He found someone to understand
To shock the world and hold his hand
No religion, no restraint
No direction, no complaints
No future and no way out
