m.j. hibbett & the validators - bbc2 (a new hope) lyrics
every magazine
i happened to read
in whsmiths
seemed to scream at me
“it’s big and bold and it’s new!”
“and it’s coming soon”
“to a screen near you!”
and in order to inflame us
they showed a million trailers
packed with special effects
i guess i ought to have guessed
but i’d hoped it would be
a romantic comedy
until a round-table discussion
late night
on bbc2
changed my point of view
bbc2
and when it finally arrived
it nearly lived up to the hype
and what we got
was a mis-directed epic
packed with action
explosions and disasters
shame about the actors
they were cast against type
we stayed up all night
you should have seen the queue
it was on bbc2
a static picture of perfection
me and you
on bbc2
and though i got over-excited at the time
and bought the merchandise
it didn’t take me very long
to realise
that though it’s very flash and fancy
it’ll never be a cl-ssic
now my tie-in t-shirt lies unwashed
unwanted
at the bottom of the basket
and i don’t want to see scenes previously unseen
widescreen
on the dvd
and in a year or two
on a sunday afternoon
you’ll see it there
on bbc2
it warrants two or three lines
in the radio times
not even a photograph of you
on bbc2
