[00:00.55]McFly  the  Musical  (Live) - McFly
[00:09.79]10 years have gone by, in the blink of an eye,
[00:14.22]
[00:15.41]Time really seems to fly when you're in McFly
[00:19.83]
[00:23.26]So thanks for coming here tonight,
[00:25.95]I hope that we aren't playing *****te
[00:28.32]
[00:29.94]And if we are, please be polite, or Doug will cry
[00:34.25]
[00:36.49]I wrote this song so that collective
[00:39.49]leeway could get some perspective
[00:41.55]
[00:42.30]Before we play and you scream, cheer and clap
[00:46.35]
[00:50.03]So please allow me if I may, to take you some place far away,
[00:56.40]
[00:59.58]And quickly give a brief 10 year recap.
[01:03.82]
[01:08.32]In 2001, I attended an audition and became
[01:14.68]the 4th addition to the Busted 1st addition
[01:17.05]After 24 hours, those frickin' Busted bastards,
[01:20.05]Kicked me out and told me I was not what they're after
[01:22.86]But I'd have done the same if I was in their position,
[01:25.66]But I'd have kicked the one out with the eyebrow condition
[01:28.72]That wasn't the end, no, it didn't stop there
[01:32.15]In 2003, up in Bolton somewhere
[01:36.21]
[01:39.87]I met someone with talent oozing out of his bones,
[01:42.37]That's right folks, he was called Danny Jones
[01:45.24]His skills on the guitar really are quite insane,
[01:47.99]But what balances his talent is his microscopic brain
[01:51.23]He agreed that him and me should right a bunch of songs,
[01:54.16]
[01:54.97]So we got a record deal and here's where it goes wrong
[01:57.28]We held an audition and two guys came along,
[02:00.84]
[02:01.46]Called Dougie and Harry, and that's how McFly was born
[02:08.20]
[02:21.18]Being McFly is pretty awesome, you get to do radical things
[02:25.61]
[02:26.42]Like touring round the world from Madrid to Brazil,
[02:29.29]Or building schools in Africa for kids that are ill
[02:32.29]Yes, everyday is different but equally thrilling,
[02:35.10]There's no way of knowing what tomorrow will bring
[02:38.15]
[02:39.78]Being McFly is pretty awesome, it's not very hard to see why
[02:44.83]It's so awesome being M-C-F-L-Y
[02:48.45]
[02:56.98]Being McFly is pretty wicked, but I am just one of four guys,
[03:01.41]
[03:02.15]I'm the only one who's not been on reality shows,
[03:04.92]But if I did I know I'd be recieving your votes,
[03:07.85]'cause I can do the tango with some folks that are famous,
[03:10.41]Or chill out in the jungle eating ostrich's anus
[03:13.15]
[03:14.83]Or there's the Big Brother house, but I would never go in,
[03:17.64]'cause I'd rather sing some opera with Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen
[03:20.82]
[03:22.44]Or I could stay home writing songs for One Direction,
[03:24.88]In search for sing-alongable musical perfection,
[03:27.70]
[03:28.26]and spend an hour admiring my Harry Potter wand collection
[03:32.57]
[03:36.76]Dougie wants to add a joke in here about erections
[03:40.26]
[03:43.57]But it's a family show, so I'm making some corrections,
[03:46.44]For those ***** eating, jungle swingers, ballroom dancing, opera singers
[03:50.99]
[03:52.99]Being McFly is pretty awesome, it's not very hard to see why,
[03:57.92]It's so awesome being M-C-F-L-Y
[04:00.54]
[04:04.22]It's been M-otional
[04:05.91]
[04:06.47]C-eems so F-ortless
[04:08.84]
[04:09.53]I'd do it all again for the L of it
[04:11.96]Just don't ask me Y
[04:13.83]
[04:14.71]It's been M-barrassing
[04:16.70]
[04:17.89]C-eems so F-ing stressful
[04:20.01]
[04:20.57]But overall it's been de Lightful
[04:22.88]It's hard to Y
[04:24.57]
[04:25.44]Every now and then the strangest things go on,
[04:29.43]
[04:31.06]Like being on the cover of a gay magazine with no clothes on
[04:36.11]
[04:39.98]But after 10 years of it, we just don't give a *****t,
[04:42.78]We will do anything, literally anything
[04:45.84]We might even pull our trousers down and wave around our dingalings
[04:51.02]
[04:55.58]Being McFly is pretty awesome, but it's not been the easiest ride
[05:00.01]
[05:00.82]Dougie went to rehab and thank God he came back,
[05:03.38]I lost loads of weight and now I'm no longer fat,
[05:06.25]Danny's going bald so he might start wearing hats
[05:08.93]We've had our share of tabloid covered exploiting romance,
[05:12.05]We still don't know if Harry really ****ged Lindsay Lohan
[05:14.86]Check me out, 'cause I can play piano with one hand
[05:17.92]That's how awesome you become if you are in my band
[05:21.04]You paid for the ticket so should probably buy a programme
[05:25.66]
[05:31.46]Oh, being McFly is freakin' awesome!
[05:34.39]
[05:35.64]But I am only one of four,
[05:38.45]
[05:39.88]The other three are equally as awesome as me,
[05:43.81]We're just about as awesome as a pop band can be
[05:48.12]Our awesomeness is tangible, it's easy to see
[05:51.93]Why we're so freaking radical, occasionally magical,
[05:56.29]Dramatical, fanatical, for us, matter-of-factual,
[06:00.29]Tactual, fantastical, contractual, we sold out shows!
[06:04.53]There's no turning back at all from McFly
[06:08.71]
[06:13.58]M - Emotional after 10 years
[06:16.26]C - See my eyes are filling with tears
[06:19.32]F - It's effortless
[06:20.94]L - Like elephants!
[06:22.19]Y - 'Cause we're awesome!
[06:23.75]Just like McFly
[06:26.87]
[06:32.86]M! C! F! L! Y!
