Formed A Band Lyrics
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
honey pie, I don’t know when it started
stop buying your albums from the supermarket
they only sell records that have charted
and Art Brut, well, we’ve only just started
and yes, this is my singing voice
it’s not irony, it’s not rock & roll
we’re just talking, to the kids
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
we’re gonna be the band that writes the song
that makes Israel and Palestine get along
we’re gonna write a song as universal as "Happy Birthday"
that makes sure everybody knows
that everything is going to be okay
we’re going to take that song
and we’re going to play it
8 weeks in a row on Top of the Pops
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
die your hair black
never look back
my past is my business
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
stop buying your albums from the supermarket
they only sell records that have charted
and Art Brut, well, we’ve only just started
and yes, this is my singing voice
it’s not irony, it’s not rock & roll
we’re just talking, to the kids
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
that makes Israel and Palestine get along
we’re gonna write a song as universal as "Happy Birthday"
that makes sure everybody knows
that everything is going to be okay
we’re going to take that song
and we’re going to play it
8 weeks in a row on Top of the Pops
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
never look back
my past is my business

did these guys form a band or something?
It's about some guy that wishes that he could fly but lacks the wings
die your hair black never look back my past is my business
He's smarter than he sounds.
This is a great song... lyrically its a genius...
"i'm gonna write a song that's the universe's 'happy birthday' that's gonna make sure that everybody knows that everything's gonna be ok i am gonna take that song and we are gonna play it eight weeks in a row on top of the pops "
Awesome
Indeed they did. I saw them live in Camden last night, they are the best.
On listening to the intro I thought; "my God I wished you hadn't formed a band!" But once I'd listened to it properly I loved it! The lyrics are hilarious!
art brut are incredible as a band and this song is genius. The vocalist style is really original and it makes you focus on what he's singin.
MUNKY MAN - OF COURSE THEY FORMED A BAND?!?!?! (hint - the name of the band is art brut!!)
i honestly don't even know where to start, musiciswow, i really don't....
LOOK AT US! WE FORMED A BAND!
"We’re gonna be the band that writes the song, that makes Israel and Palestine get along."
What an excellent satire for such a humourous song.
