ONE HIT WONDER

Each and every year - on the cover of the music trades
A brand new band appears - and rockets up the hit parade
And the polls they all predict - their light is gonna shine
But soon the latest pick to click - is out of sight and out of mind
And the singer goes solo, leaves 'em in the dust
The drummer gets drafted and their dream go bust

Chorus
Another one-hit wonder - pourin out their hearts
Another one-hit wonder - flying up and down the charts
Hot smoke and sassafras sure feels nice
But this kinda lightening don't strike twice
So here's to Johnny Thunder
And all the One-Hit Wonders

I'll never understand - why the greatest riffs in history
The flashes in the pan - are the ones that shake our memory
Though fortunes rise and fall - their music's still alive
I guess they said it all - in two minutes, 45
The names go on forever - though some sound kinda strange
They come and go but rock and roll will never be the same

Chorus
Another one-hit wonder - takin center stage
Another one-hit wonder - turn another page
Hot smoke and sassafras sure feels nice
But this kinda lightening don't strike twice
So here's to Johnny Thunder
And all the One-Hit Wonders
