Goodbye…
And in the olden days
We used to like our pop stars to be different
They used to set the trends
And we would follow
We never cared a lot
If they could sing as long as they were funny
That was the total point
Of being a pop star
But look around us now
Our pop stars are all really dull
Like Justin Wotsisname
And Jennifer Tedium
Thank God it's over
That was the worst year of our lives
Goodbye my bygone days bygone days gone by
Goodbye my bygone days bygone days of days gone bygone days
And in the future age
We welcome the birth of a new Messiah
Not a religious one
I mean a pop star
I don't recall his name
But he wears frocks and kilts and frilly collars
And a Venetian mask
And lots of make-up
And when you see his hands
You'll wish you had hands just like his
And when you hear the voice
You'll do what he says
He knows the new way
The new way we'll live our lives
He has the power
He is the glory
He is the best one
The best pop star of our lives
Goodbye you normal dull boring hackneyed fools
Goodbye you losers, make way for me, the new Messiah king
