Now I'm not saying we're unhappy
Being classified as simply a punk-ska band
And sure you think these groups are crappy
That this many screaming teenage girls is out of hand
That's right I'm talkin' 'bout the boys bands
And I'm confessing, we're jealous of what they have it's true
I mean no disrespect to our fans
Rather I'm pleading to make our pop-star dreams come true
Please grant us boy band status
Put our posters on your wall
Please grant us boy bands status
We just want to be loved that's all
For me it started with the new kids
They were my favorite I still know the words
to Hangin' Tough
Though all my friends thought they were stupid
I was smitten I truly thought they had the right stuff
Then boys to men came out of Philly
They sang so soulfully I'd never before wanted
so much to be black
Though retrospectively it seems silly
That's when i decided to point my life down
the boy band track.
Now I don't know what to think about N'Sync
And I don't get all this noise, 'bout the Backstreet Boys
No i don't dig what they do but i think we could do it too
So i'm begging you I'm down on my knees
Oh please
