An MP3 of ‘Wild West Midlands’ by West Midlands. Come on everyone, let’s have a sing-along…

I had a dream, 
But it didn’t quite come off. 
The world wasn’t really ready 
For sarcastic arena rock. 
The party ended prematurely 
When the band got dropped, 
And Now I’m back in my parents’ house 
Putting CDs up in the loft. 

In the wild, wild west 
Wild West Midlands 
The wild wild west 
Wild West Midlands 

I had a plan, 
But it didn’t quite come together. 
Our little band wasn’t strong enough 
To cope with the stormy weather. 
When the ship ran aground 
There were men overboard. 
Not everybody missed the nineties 
Quite as much as I thought. 

In the wild, wild west 
Wild West Midlands 
Wild wild West 
Wild West Midlands 

If this was a movie 
I guess that the lesson 
Would be don’t stop believing 
And reach for the stars 
But don’t expect you’re going to get them. 

I had a vision, 
I’d become an apparition 
I lost a lot of friends there, baby, 
I made some bad decisions. 
Now I’m back in the bedroom 
Where we started this mess 
With ‘where do we go now?’ 
Carved into my chest, my chest, my chest, my chest. 

Wild, wild west 
The wild West Midlands 
In the wild, wild west 
The wild West Midlands 
I’m in the wild, wild west 
The wild West Midlands 
The wild, wild west 
The wild West Midlands
