Never took a scene check   Never were a reject   Always lookin perfect   Now you aren't so in step   in step   in step   in step            You had your photograph, in a magazine   Such a pretty boy, only nineteen   But now your twenty-three and it's all gone now   you ain't all that, you wanna be somehow            Maybe it was only a dream!   You just thought you could be anything that you wanted to be   Sadly, it all went wrong so            Never took a scene check   Never were a reject   Always lookin perfect   Now you aren't so in step   in step   in step   in step            Still just go to the same old clubs   But the new kids have got one above   Music tastes change like the wind   You're doin now what's already been            And you still think that you're so it   Cause you know so and so, and you made a hit   But you can't hear it being played   Cause you my friend have had your day            Never took a scene check   Never were a reject   Always lookin perfect   Now you aren't so in step   in step   in step   in step
