About Hey Kid

"Hey Kid" is the second official single from Matt Willis, released on August 14, 2006. It is taken from Willis's debut solo album Don't Let It Go to Waste. "Hey Kid" also appears in the 2006 teen film John Tucker Must Die and the action packed teen film Alex Rider:Stormbreaker, and therefore will be on both the films soundtracks. The lyrics of this song are about the days after Busted, Willis' original band, split. This song features two music videos, one being the main video and the other to fit the story of John Tucker Must Die. On August 20, the song entered the UK Top 75 at #61, based solely on download sales. The following week it climbed to #11 due to the physical release of the single. The B-Side "Me And Your Mother" was also featured on Willis' debut album as a hidden track more »

Lyin' here, arm around my girl
I turn on the radio 
A shame we had to bail
You know we put on quite a show
What am I gonna do? 
I left on my answer phone 
Till then, what I told you 
Right now, I just don't know 
And I said

Hey! Kid! 
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah! 
It happens on its own
I said it's all right
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!) 
You don't get along trying to be nobody else
It's god-damned right, you know! 

Every day will break
But another comes along
Won't have long to wait
And you've always got that song
It's funny when you're drunk (funny when you're drunk!) 
How everything is clear
"Come check out my bum!" 
Can get the rock right out of here
And I said

Hey! Kid! 
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah! 
It happens on its own
I said it's all right
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!) 
You don't get along tryin' to be nobody else
It's god-damned right, you know! 

Feelin' so much better in this frame of mind, 
'Cause I've been sick of taking over all the good guitars 
And I know (and you know) I'm a capable guy
I got so many things I wanted to do 
And I got the chance to prove it to you! 
Hey - I'm lyin' (I'm lyin'!) 'cause I waited my life 
And I am ready to blow
But when I do something about the wind and rain
They start all over again
And I need some pieces from you! 

Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!) 
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah! 
It happens on its own
I said it's all right
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!) 
You don't get along tryin' to be nobody else
It's god-damned right, you know! 

Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!) 
Don't think you gotta try and be somebody, yeah! 
It happens on its own
I said it's all right
Hey! (Hey!) Kid! (Kid!) 
You don't get along tryin' to be nobody else
It's god-damned right, you know!
