The screams could have curdled the beer
That we drank in the dressing room tonight
Chuck negotiated pizza on the Rider
Now two more shows at?Budda Pond?
And home by chartered flight
And it seems we hit a fast ball
And heading for the plate
World Tour '88
World Tour '88
Well the royalties get spend up quick
Cause we buy stuff for our friends
And Uno wanted some Sennheiser mics
So Joey Roth from A & R picks up our tab at the bar
Our label treats us nice and says we're great

It started happening two years ago
When Tad auditioned for the new Monkees show
He didn't get the part, he played too loud
This threatened disillusion spawned a stronger resolution
And?a clown? who never messed with what was fate
And someone in the business heard our tape
All right! Touchdown!
The t-shirt sales alone could feed a thousand hungry homes
But we still draw from our advance to meet expenses
And pretty soon our fans will turn their backs and say we've changed
But some how I still feel pretty much the same
And we never really asked for all this fame
But it's pretty cool what's happened as of late
World Tour '88 (x8)
