The Lyrics
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
I'm not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
Some kids would simply die
If they could join the band
But it's not the way they play that's wrong to me
Just not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
Number one (they're number one)
Number one (number one)
Some kids would simply die
If they could join the band
But it's not the way they play that's wrong to me
I'm not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
Number one (number one)
Number one
Everytime that I see them reeling
I can tell there's been some dealing
Everytime that they can't sing clearly
I know that they're gonna act so weirdly
You can see it if you watch them dance now
I'll bet that crowd's just thinking "oh wow!"
But you're not gonna hear me lecture
A lifetime's pain for a moment's pleasure
Some kids would simply die
If they could join the band
But it's not the way they play that's wrong to me
I'm not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one (selling, selling number one)
Everytime that I see them reeling
I can tell there's been some dealing
Everytime that they can't sing clearly
I know that they're gonna act so weirdly
You can see it if you watch them dance now
I'll bet that crowd's just thinking "oh wow!"
But you're not gonna hear me lecture
A lifetime's pain for a moment's pleasure
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
When they're going on
Selling another number one
I'm not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
Some kids would simply die
If they could join the band
But it's not the way they play that's wrong to me
Just not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
Number one (they're number one)
Number one (number one)
Some kids would simply die
If they could join the band
But it's not the way they play that's wrong to me
I'm not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
Number one (number one)
Number one
Everytime that I see them reeling
I can tell there's been some dealing
Everytime that they can't sing clearly
I know that they're gonna act so weirdly
You can see it if you watch them dance now
I'll bet that crowd's just thinking "oh wow!"
But you're not gonna hear me lecture
A lifetime's pain for a moment's pleasure
Some kids would simply die
If they could join the band
But it's not the way they play that's wrong to me
I'm not the kind of guy
Who bites the heads off of bats
Oh no!
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one (selling, selling number one)
Everytime that I see them reeling
I can tell there's been some dealing
Everytime that they can't sing clearly

But you're not gonna hear me lecture
A lifetime's pain for a moment's pleasure
These guys are high
When they're going on
Selling another number one
