One day, when I came home, at lunchtime, I decided that
I wanted to be a pop star, so I got my guitar out
Sat down, and wrote down some lyrics about my life

I wanted to have a number one
Wouldn't it be so fun?

I said I'm going to write some songs
About my teacher who I had a crush on
And about my psycho ex-girlfriend
Who was pretty weird, pretty weird

Later, got a tape out, recorded one, and sent it away
I was so happy when I found out I'd got a record deal
Went to the studio to record my very first single

Then two other guys joined me
And we formed a fantastic band, yeah yeah

They said we'll help you to write some more songs
About your teacher who you had a crush on
And about our psycho ex-girlfriends
Who were pretty weird, pretty weird

I took a trip to 2003
This song had gone number 2
Our debut album had gone gold
100,000 copies had been sold
I took a trip to 2003
This song had gone number 2
Our debut album had gone gold
Had gone gold, had gone gold

We travelled round to promote our song
Success didn’t take that long, no no

We said we've written loads of top songs
About the teacher who you had a crush on
And about our psycho ex-girlfriends
Who were pretty weird
