You See Them Looking On With Interest
And Someone Says It's the Start of a Contest
They Only Want to Be Like You
They Only Want to Be Like You
They Dance Around and Shout About It
Until They Finally Get Their Own Bit
They Only Want to Be Like You
They Only Want to Be Like You

So You Should Something New, Everyone Stares
Everybody Thinks That They're Gonna Get Theirs
And They Cut Off Your Hands, no One Really Cares
Everybody Thinks That They're Gonna Get Theirs

So Tell a Lie Or Twist the Story
Should Someone Say It's Getting Boring?
They Only Hit Back At You
'cos They Only Want to Be Like You
But Still They're Looking On With Interest
Waiting to See the Results of This Test
They'll Say That None of This Is True
Oh But I Know They Want to Be Like You

So You Shout Something New...

Ooooooooh...ska!
