They cried the tears, they shed the fears
Up and down the land
They stole guitars or used guitars
So the tape would understand
Without even the slightest hope of a 1000 sales
Just as if, as if there was, hitsville in U.K.
I know the boy was all alone
Till the hitsville hit U.K.
(Remember)
They say true talent will always emerge in time
When lightening hits small wonder
It's fast rough factory trade
No expense accounts, or lunch discounts or hyping up the charts
The band went in an' knocked 'em dead in 2 minutes 59
I know the boy was all alone
Till the hitsville hit U.K.
(So hit)
No slimy deals with smarmy eels in hitsville U.K.
Lets shake an' say, we'll operate in hitsville U.K.
I know the boy was all alone
Till the hitsville hit U.K.
The mutants, creeps and muscle men
Are shaking like a leaf
It blows a hole in the radio
When it hasn't sounded good all week
A mike an' boom, in your living room in hitsville U.K.
No consumer trials, no A.O.R. in hitsville U.K.
I know the boy was all alone
Till the hitsville hit U.K.
Now the boys and girls are not alone
Now they're hitsville's hit U.K.
I know the boy and girls are not alone
Now they're hitsville's hit U.K.
I know the boy and girls are not alone
Now they're hitsville's hit U.K.
I know the boy and girls are not alone
Now they're hitsville's hit U.K.
