The Replacements - Talent Show lyrics

In my waxed up hair and my painted shoes

Got an offer that you might refuse

Tonight, tonight, we're gonna take a stab

Come on along, we'll grab a cab

We ain't much to look at so

Close your eyes, here we go

We're playin' at the talent show

Playin' at the talent show

Come on along, here we go

Playin' at the talent show

Check us out, here we go

Playin' at the talent show

Well we got our guitars and we got thumb picks

And we go on after some lip-synch chicks

We're feelin' good from the pills we took

Oh, baby, don't gimme that look

We ain't much to look at so

Close your eyes, here we go

We're playin' at the talent show

Playin' at the talent show

Come on along, here we go

Playin' at the talent show

Hop a ride, here we go

Playin' at the talent show

Well it's the biggest thing in my life I guess

Look at us all, we're nervous wrecks

Hey, we go on next

Talent show

Talent show

Playin' at the talent show

Playin' at the talent show

Wish us luck if you can't go

Playin' at the talent show

An empty seat in the front row

We might even win this time, guys, you never know

It's too late to turn back, here we go
