mcfly the musical
10 years have gone by, in the blink of an eye Time really seems to fly when you're in Mcfly So thanks for coming here tonight I hope that we aren't playing shite And if we are, please be polite, or Doug will cry I wrote this song so that collectively we could get some perspective Before we play and you scream, cheer and clap So please allow me, if I may, to take you some place far away And quickly give a brief 10 year recap In 2001, I attended an audition and became the 4th addition to the Busted 1st edition After 24 hours, those frickin' Busted bastards Kicked me out and told me I was not what they're after But I'd have done the same if I was in their position But I'd have kicked the one out with the eyebrow condition That wasn't the end, no, it didn't stop there In 2003, up in Bolton somewhere I met someone with talent oozing out of his bones That's right folks, he was called Danny Jones His skills on the guitar really are quite insane But what balances his talent is his microscopic brain He agreed that him and me should write a bunch of songs So we got a record deal and here's where it goes wrong We held an audition and two guys came along Called Dougie and Harry, and that's how Mcfly was born Being Mcfly is pretty awesome, you get to do radical things Like touring round the world from Madrid to Brazil Or building schools in Africa for kids that are ill Yes, everyday is different but equally thrilling There's no way of knowing what tomorrow will bring Being Mcfly is pretty awesome, it's not very hard to see why It's so awesome being M-C-F-L-Y Being Mcfly is pretty wicked, but I am just one of four guys I'm the only one who's not been on reality shows But if I did I'd know I'd be receiving your votes 'Cause I can do the tango with some folks that are famous Or chill out in the jungle eating ostrich's anus Or there's the Big Brother house, but I would never go in 'Cause I'd rather sing some opera with Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen Or I could stay home writing songs for One Direction In search for sing-alongable musical perfection And spend an hour admiring my Harry Potter wand collection Dougie wants to add a joke in here about erections But it's a family show, so I'm making some corrections For those penis eating, jungle swingers, ballroom dancing, opera singers Being Mcfly is pretty awesome, it's not very hard to see why It's so awesome being M-C-F-L-Y It's been M-otional C-ms so F-fortless I'd do it all again for the L of it Just don't ask me Y It's been M-barrassing C-eems so F-ing stressful But overall it's been de-L-ightful It's hard to Y-ne Every now and then the strangest things go on Like being on the cover of a gay magazine with no clothes on But after 10 years of it, we just don't give a shit We will do anything, literally anything We might even pull our trousers down and wave around our danglings Being Mcfly is pretty awesome, but it's not been the easiest ride Dougie went to rehab and thank God he came back I lost loads of weight and now I'm no longer fat And Danny's going bald so he might start wearing hats We've had our share of tabloid covered exploited romance We still don't know if Harry really shagged Lindsay Lohan Check me out, 'cause I can play piano with one hand That's how awesome you become if you are in my band You paid for the ticket so should probably buy a programme Oh, being Mcfly is freakin' awesome! But I am only one of four The other three are equally as awesome as me We're just about as awesome as a pop band can be Our awesomeness is tangible, it's easy to see Why we're so freaking radical, occasionally magical Dramatical, fanatical, for us, matter-of-factual It's actual, fantastical, contractual, we sold out shows! There's no turning back at all from Mcfly M-otional after 10 years C - see my eyes are filling with tears F - it's effortless L - like elephants! Y - 'cause we're awesome! Just like Mcfly M! C! F! L! Y!
