Do you remember your first Hammersmith gig How they queued up for hours in the rain Spent all they had to get as near to the front They thought it was worth it just to see you again All the excitement with the lights going down Your name was shouted like some magical word Then the band fired up those opening chords It seemed so loud I think the whole world must of heard it Billy Billy did you know what they were going to do Did you know that they were gonna make a star out of you Billy Billy can you hear what I say You better hang on to yourself don't let them take it all away Billy Billy I'm scared of what they're putting you through
Seemed such a long way from when we were at school Two skinny kids getting their first guitars We drove them crazy with those tunes that we wrote Down in the front room we'd be practising for hours and hours Then the night came when we sang down the club Guess we were lousy but they cheered just the same I never thought about it much until now That look that came into your eyes while we were playing
Billy Billy did you know what they were going to do Did you know that they were gonna make a star out of you Billy Billy can you hear what I say You better hang on to yourself don't let them take it all away Billy Billy I'm scared of what they're putting you through
You know I saw you up in town a while back You walked straight by me as we passed in the door I said hello but I guess that you never heard Can't bring myself to play your albums anymore You've got the papers tripping over themselves Your mum still cuts out each and every word At home they talk about you all of the time I hope they give you everything that you deserve
Billy Billy did you know what they were going to do Did you know that they were gonna make a star out of you Billy Billy can you hear what I say You better hang on to yourself don't let them take it all away Billy Billy I'm scared of what they're putting you throughTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
