lyrics

Groupie

I'll glare at you as you approach the front of the queue
You'll never know the band or understand the songs just like I do
I'm just back from the German leg, I should've been inside by now
But Bex couldn't get her usual 'plus two'

An old song on a set list feels like a returning missing son
I spend all day posturing on the official online forum
Surround myself with sycophants, because we've all got OCD
The only cure's false camaraderie

La na na na na na na...

Well I'm a guru, I get the setlists, I give the roadies my fags
My girlfriend's crazy, she tolerates me, if not she'd have to pack her bags
I know the promoters, got all the t-shirts, you wanna know? - I'll tell ya
I'm many things - just don't call me a groupie

Arrived at three, saw the singer drinking tea
I ignored the look of sheer exasperation that she shot at me
She vaguely humoured me, just like she tends to every time
I wonder if she knows she could be mine?

I dunno who these newbies are who have turned up on this tour
No-one of my pedigree seems to have seen them before
The music's incidental, although I know it off by heart
Oh come on, the support's about to start

La na na na na na na...

Well I'm a guru, I get the setlists, I give the roadies my fags
My girlfriend's crazy, she tolerates me, if not she'd have to pack her bags
I know the promoters, got all the t-shirts, you wanna know? - I'll tell ya
I'm many things - just don't call me a groupie
