You're Almost Through The Door But There's A Whole Lot But Don't Let This Uproar More You Just Can't Ignore The Telephone's Sure, You Know The Score Dissipate Your Encore How You Paid Your Dues It's Written In The News But You've No Excuse For The People You Abuse When You Reach Number One You Can Sack Your Roadies In Birmingham You Can Beat Your Drum When Your Record Is Platinum To The Wall Like You've Always Planned You Can Stick It To The [band] It's Written In The News How You Paid Your Dues But You've No Excuse For The People You Abuse When You Reach Number Ten The People You Abuse No Excuse For The People You Abuse For The People You Abuseyou've Got No Excuse
