"We're Looking For A Hit" lyrics

The weight of all this expectation waiting at an anxious station
I listened to your newest offering
On a playlist titled 'ones to watch'
The early morning walk that
I walk helps to cleanse my mind of the muck
That's sticking to the walls of every thought
Now there's a line PR will love
I'm your reluctant pop sensation
On every wall, on every station
With all my principles upon my sleeve
But with that chorus line you need

We're looking for a hit
We're looking for a hit
We're looking for a hit

Don't get me wrong I like my quiet life
I can go anywhere I like
Without being recognised at all
But I would like the choice, that's all
I'll take my musical ethics to my grave
I'm not controversial in how I behave
Maybe I should wear something loud
Or tell you what I really think now

We're looking for a hit
We're looking for a hit
We're looking for a hit

"Darling, I've been waiting here
I've been on my knees
I've been searching out for you"

I'm on that train that's bound for success or death
Well, either one will do, I guess
I'm not particularly inspired
But I can sing it down the wire
I saw you in the paper looking grand
I wish I could give you a hand
But I'm too busy, can't you tell?
I've left an ink and paper trail

We're looking for a hit
We're looking for a hit
We're looking for a hit
