Oo ee oo I look nothing like Buddy Holly,
And I'm nice to other people mostly,
Unless they deserve otherwise,
You can normally tell by the eyes.

I'm nothing at all like most of my what do you call them,
Those guys you idolise and follow,
Until they deserve otherwise,
You can always tell by the eyes.

Take a little bit of my heart,
Throw it in the pit of a fire,
Because I'd rather have a burning heart than no heart.

(Repeat Verse 1)

Keep it going full steam ahead what did you stop for,
Describe yourself in three or more words,
Break it down for all the little guys,
Either that or get on with your life.

(Chorus)

For those that have ever been in love don't compromise,
We've only got a couple of hours tonight,
We've only got a couple of hours,
Only got a couple of hours.

(Chorus)
