The Lyrics
Switch the television on
see pop-singers with their new cover songs
Pete Waterman cash in
and the masses buy the same again
Fame Academy go away
I heard the same song again
Fame Academy go away
one more time
the TV show's appalling
single's in the chart today
I've seen these guys here before
is it Will Young? maybe Gareth Gates?
Fame Academy go away
I heard the same song again
Fame Academy go away
one more time
here's Pop Idols round again
every song they do sounds the same
I can't watch all these people just blunder through
and I guess it's a hit again
Sittin' there lifting the phone
sending the runners up back out to their home
for 10 million people vote
just wasting their time y'know
Fame Academy go away
I heard the same song again
Fame Academy go away
one more time
see pop-singers with their new cover songs
Pete Waterman cash in
and the masses buy the same again
Fame Academy go away
I heard the same song again
Fame Academy go away
one more time
the TV show's appalling
single's in the chart today
I've seen these guys here before
is it Will Young? maybe Gareth Gates?
Fame Academy go away
I heard the same song again
Fame Academy go away
one more time
here's Pop Idols round again
every song they do sounds the same
I can't watch all these people just blunder through
and I guess it's a hit again
Sittin' there lifting the phone
sending the runners up back out to their home
for 10 million people vote
just wasting their time y'know
Fame Academy go away
I heard the same song again
Fame Academy go away
one more time
