Don't you know that boy?
Have you forgotten his name?
He was yesterday's idol
He was the darling of fame
How the crowd used to chase him
When that boy was tops
When he made an appearance
They had to call out the cops
Yes, it's really him
He's looking down on his life
He was yesterday's idol
But then the needle got stuck
Don't you know that boy?
Have you forgotten his name?
He was yesterday's idol
He was the darling of fame
They'd be tearing his clothes off
How the kids would scream
Now he sits in the shadows
Like a forgotten dream
Went to bed one night
He was the darling of fame
When he woke in the morning
No one remembered his name
That's the way it goes
It can happen that fast
When you're yesterday's idol
And your future has passed
Don't you remember him?
He was the first one to wear that hair long
You know, before the other group called the, uh
Well, you know, he used to be on all those beat shows
There was, uh, and, uh
He had that big hit record
It was called, um
It's funny how you forget
It's almost over
You know, they're so and then all
They're gone
Before you can turn a
You know, I say incredible
If you'd have told me I'd have forgotten his name
I would never have believed it
