| Davo’s polishing an antique Strat
|
| That no musician could afford
|
| He’s got himself a twin and a pork pie hat
|
| He’s got himself a new jazz chord
|
| He rang up Matty but Matty’s not sure
|
| If his wife’s gonna let him off the leash
|
| He says, «Matty, I’m getting the band back together
|
| I need ya, brother, capiche?»
|
| All across town, the word’s out
|
| It’s all everybody’s talkin' about
|
| And they are…
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| The Mad Dog’s rustled up a Tama kit
|
| In a nitro sparkle shade o' red
|
| He’s booking 'em out, set 'em up for a hit
|
| In a corner of the backyard shed
|
| The boot shop’s kitted out bassman Viv
|
| With a bad pair of snakeskin shoes
|
| His girlfriend’s given him an apricot rinse
|
| All the better for playing the blues
|
| All that fire and all that belly
|
| The bottom end’s tighter than Byron and Shelley
|
| And they are…
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Getting the band back together, yeah they’re
|
| Getting the band back together, you know they’re
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Life is good with the kids all gone
|
| But it’s all been too quiet, too long
|
| And they are…
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Somewhere out in the great beyond
|
| Biggie is singing forever
|
| Even now that the weekend’s coming
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Getting the band back together, getting the band
|
| Getting the band back together, I wanna tell ya they’re
|
| Getting the band back together, yes they are
|
| Getting the band back together, hey (get it back together)
|
| Getting the band back together, hey, hey, hey, hey
|
| Getting the band back together, oh, yeah
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Getting the band back together, together, baby
|
| Getting the band back together
|
| Getting the band back together, I said they’re
|
| Getting the band back together |
