Overnight Success - Zane Williams
First you buy an ol' second-hand amp
With a knob that sticks
You plug a cheap fender in
Then you crank it to ten
And you learn a few Haggard licks
Then you play everyday for oh
About nine or ten years
Writin' songs for your girl
And blowin' all your money on gear
Then you talk to a drummer
Who's a friend of a friend at church
He's got a buddy who's been learning the bass
So you get together after work
You play together six months 'til the band is tight
Book your first big gig on a Friday night
Step up to the mic and pray you remember the words
Then you sing about love or maybe love gone wrong
And you do a little drinkin' to a drinkin' song
You make everybody dance
Everybody smile everybody feel good for a while
And when you're done way to go
You finished step one
Next you borrow 10 grand
From your uncle and you make a CD
Good luck paying him back cause it's a modern day fact
Anybody can get it for free
You spend your time online making virtual fans
Shopping for a band van while you work for the man
'Til you book enough gigs you can turn in your two weeks
Then you sing about love or maybe love gone wrong
And you do a little drinkin' to a drinkin' song
You make everybody dance everybody smile
Everybody feel good for a while
And when you're through
That's pretty good but that's just step two
(Two step it now)
Step three: glue your hands to a steering wheel
Step four: eat fast food every meal
Step five and six: fire the original band
And buy a new van
Step seven: burn out and give it up
Step eight: come back cause it's what you love
Step nine: you finally get a shot at the big time
So you sing about love or maybe love gone wrong
And you put your whole heart
And soul into every song
You make Letterman laugh and Leno smile
Stack your awards up in a pile
And guess what's next
Everybody calls you an overnight success
Yeah you're an overnight success
Hey and all it really took was 20 years of blood
Sweat and tears
You know what on second thought
Maybe you should just
I don't know
Try out for American Idol or something
