When I saw her sing, I latched onto her talent Like a love-lorn leach and hoped that she would notice me With my three chords, and day job at the music store And smoke-soaked brain, a hobo on a speeding train I walk down, find your flyer on the ground A voice in need, I'd love to think it could be me I won't lie, I haven't let a day go by Without what you wrote And singing every single note Let's start a band, let's start a band Oh, come on, come on, come on now I'm not in love This is purely professional We'll share this mic But only if it feels alright I'm feeling shy I can barely meet your eye Let's start the show Grab the mic and go Let's go Let's start a band, let's start a band Oh, come on, come on, come on now Shake it out What do you want? I wanna break loose Now cut it up Like Footloose Come on, let's go We're singing "oh, oh" Come one, let's go We gotta know Let's start a band, let's start a band Oh, come on, come on, come on now
