Please Let Us Play Lyrics

I want to be a Rock and Roll singer (You?!)
That's what I'm longing to be (No chance!)
How about you - if you fancy it too
You can accompany me (Yeah)
We've not got very good voices (Duh)
But that doesn't matter a bit
If they let us
then I'm sure we could get us a hit

What a load of rubbish!

Please let us play (No! No! No!)
Please let us play (No! No! No!)
Please let us play (No! No! No!)
Please let us play (No! No! No!)
We don't want money
Just don't send us away

I can freak out on my drum kit
I can pick a funky banjo
We've got a man who'll play a hot triangle
Come on everybody lets go! [ding]

We've got to get a big time record
It's gonna get us on the hit parade (Yes, we see)
But anyone who hears us
Covers up their ears and says
"What a load of rubbish!"
Please let us play (No! No! No!)
Please let us play (No! No! No!)
Please let us play (No! No! No!)
Please let us play (No! No! No!)
We don't want money
Just don't send us away

Hey, hit me with a heavy guitar
Lay down the brass
Feed me some funky fiddle

Now we're Rock and Roll singers
Now we are superstars
We look so cute in our beautiful suits
And nobody knows who we are (Ooh)
We've still got terrible voices
And we still can't play, we admit
But everyone who hears us
Stands up and cheers - "it's a hit!"

What a load of rubbish!

Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
We've got money
And they don't send us away

Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
Please let us play (Yes! Yes! Yes!)
We've got money
And they don't send us away
