[Verse 1]
He said he'll never give me up or let me down
Somebody tell me just where he is now?
I guess the boys are back in town
He said that Stacy's mom has got it going on
That's when I knew that there was something wrong
I guess he moved on there's no doubt
[Pre-Chorus]
He built me up, then let me go
Now he's just somebody that I used to know
[Chorus]
He's just a one-hit wonder
He's only gonna give you one hot summer
Then he'll be gone and you'll be left to wonder
Why you're still singing his song
He's just a three, two
One-hit wonder
[Verse 2]
I thought, I thought that we'd be dancing in the moonlight
I thought we found something we couldn't find
But now I'm dancing all alone, mm
'Cause now he's serenading someone else
He's got his arms around them now
And missing him is getting loud
I can't turn it down
[Pre-Chorus]
He built me up, then let me go
Now he's just somebody that I used to know
[Chorus]
He's just a one-hit wonder
He's only gonna give you one hot summer
Then he'll be gone and you'll be left to wonder
Why you're still singing his song
He's just a three, two
One-hit wonder
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh, ah-oh-oh
Oh-oh, ah-oh-oh
Oh-oh, ah-oh-oh
[Bridge]
He's just a one-hit wonder
I'm second-guessing why I took his number
'Cause now he's gone and, man, it's such a bummer
'Cause I'm still singing along to his song
[Chorus]
He's just a one-hit wonder
He's only gonna give you one hot summer
Then he'll be gone and you'll be left to wonder
Why you're still singing his song
He's just a three, two
One-hit wonder
[Outro]
(Oh-oh, ah-oh-oh)
A one-hit wonder
(Oh-oh, ah-oh-oh)
He's just a one-hit wonder
(Oh-oh, ah-oh-oh)
Mm, a one-hit wonder
He's just a three two
One-hit wonder

I wrote One Hit Wonder with my friends last summer after making a joke that a man that I was dating was one. Then the joke went a bit too far when we wrote a whole song out of a whole bunch of one hit wonders. It’s about someone who only really gives you one good summer of fun, but never anything el...
