Amateur Hour Lyrics - Singles - Joe Jackson

Don't make me sad 

Talking 'bout tomorrow 

It's not so bad 

We were doing fine just then 

You'll move on up, you'll move on out 

And you won't cry 

Cause your amateur hour is over 

You're only going where I've been 

And you'll see what I've seen 

You're no amateur, amateur 

You know if someone likes your face 

You'd be a fool to stay strictly amateur 

It's strictly for amateurs 

The world could be a better place 

If some of us could stay 

Amateurs 

There's no more time 

To think about the way ahead 

Just miss one line 

Fall over, you'll be left for dead 

Your heart will play no part except 

When memories of your amateur hour take over 

Then screw yourself into a ball 

And keep it rolling on 

You're no amateur, amateur 

You know if someone likes your face 

You'd be a fool to stay strictly amateur 

It's strictly for amateurs 

The world could be a better place 

If some of us could stay 

Amateurs
