| When we started we thought we were great | |
| Tho' nobody else agreed | |
| Just you and I wasting our time | |
| Playing and singing out of key | |
| And they said we played too loud | |
| 'Cos we didn't play for their crowd | |
| We just told them, ‽Wait and see†| |
| We had no money but still we went on | |
| Trying to get some gear | |
| A smashed up cymbal and an old snare drum | |
| Our financial state was clear | |
| And they said we should give up | |
| They said we didn't have a hope | |
| And we still told them, ‽Wait and see†| |
| We worked harder got better in every way | |
| Got some other friends involved | |
| Pretty soon we found we knew how to play | |
| We'd got all our problems solved | |
| But I swear to this day | |
| I could see you drifting away | |
| But I told myself, ‽Wait and see†| |
| Then came the day you said goodbye | |
| We tried to smile but had to cry | |
| You knew that you'd be missed | |
| And we wished you all the best | |
| But still we wished you would stay | |
| Till then you were a part of everything | |
| And everything that might have been | |
| And now that everything has turned into what is | |
| If you'd have waited you'd have seen | |
| But you gave yourself the sack | |
| Now there's no turning back | |
| Now all your future's wait and see | |
| ‽You're not good enough, you're not good enough | |
| You're not good enough to be a dance bandâ€, they told us | |
| But we're not giving up, we're not giving up | |
| We're not giving up, we'll show them |
| When we started we thought we were great | |
| Tho' nobody else agreed | |
| Just you and I wasting our time | |
| Playing and singing out of key | |
| And they said we played too loud | |
| ' Cos we didn' t play for their crowd | |
| We just told them, Wait and see | |
| We had no money but still we went on | |
| Trying to get some gear | |
| A smashed up cymbal and an old snare drum | |

| And they said we should give up | |
| They said we didn' t have a hope | |
| And we still told them, Wait and see | |
| We worked harder got better in every way | |
