[Chorus]
Bow out
Get lost
I'd like to pull the fader down
On the band that won't go away
Give up

On the band that won't go away
Go away!
Beat it!
[Bridge]
Give up
Repent
Good riddance and all God's blessings
On the band that won't go away
[Outro]
Repent!
Break up!
Go away!
I'd like to pull the fader down
(They're the band that won't go away)
Who cares?
Shut up!
Shut down!
Retire!
(They're the band that won't go away)
Move to Nashville!
Go to hell!
Grow up!
Get a job!
(They're the band that won't go away)
Fade out
Fade out
Fade out
(They're the band that won't go away)
(They're the band that won't go away)
