Tedium is Overcome From obscurity, through melody And when I'm blind it helps me See through your key No one can touch, no need to rush Presented by my alibi When I'm down it brings me round So easily At eight o' clock I take my leave And when I'm done and dusted Tonight I'm gonna be I'll be a Karaoke queen, it's not me you see I'm gonna take you down to a place I know you'd rather be It's just a three minute song It doesn't last very long But It'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be Hey you can dance Oooh sha la la la la la la Common sense has excuses Recklessness, its uses But don't go fusing silence with charisma At nine o'clock you can count on me And when I'm up I'm ready Tonight I'm gonna be I'll be a Karaoke queen, it's not me you see I'm gonna take you down to a place I know you'd rather be It's just a three minute song It doesn't last very long But it'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be Where you can dance I'm doomed to fail The stage gives way It's an apostrophe to my legacy But thought I'm bruised I'll happily do it all again At 10 O'clock don't wait up for me Cos when I'm up I'm ready Tonight I'm gonna be Matthew! I'll be a Karaoke queen, it's not me you see I'm gonna take you down to a place I know you'd rather be It's just a three minute song It doesn't last very long But it'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be And you can dance if you want to Show appreciation But step up to the mic for the full sensation And you can dance And you can dance And you can dance And you can dance And you can ooh la la la ohh sha la la And you can ooh la la la ohh sha la la
