Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band

Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band

Honey pie, I don't know when it started
Stop buying your albums from the supermarkets
They only sell records that have charted
And Art Brut, well we've only just started

And yes, this is my singing voice
It's not irony and it's not rock 'n roll
We're just talking to the kids

Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band

Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band

We're gonna be the band that writes the song
That makes Israel and Palestine get along

We're gonna write a song as universal as Happy Birthday
That makes sure everybody knows, everything is gonna be okay
We're gonna take that song, we're gonna play it
Eight weeks in a row on Top of the Pops

Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band

Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band
Formed a band, we formed a band
Look at us, we formed a band

Dye your hair black, never look back
My past is my business
