about

Call us a Weezer tribute band, get a song written about you.

lyrics

Well, well, well
We ain’t no Weezer tributeband.

"We love when you kids yell for Buddy Holly,  
makes me think of my ol' Peggy Sue.
But you kids never heard of Buddy Holly.
Yer just screaming bout some Album they call Blue."  

Now just because we learned some Weezer numbers,
It don’t mean that’s all that we can do. (but you’re called Geezer!)
We medley, mashup, parody some others
and do it twice as good as you and you.

COPYCAT (COPYCAT!) 
COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
Oh look, we wrote a song. 
COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
Leave the aping for King Kong.
"We like those kids,  
we think they're grand
but we ain't no Weezer tribute band."

Well yes we've played onstage with the Weezers (say it ain’t so)
for 10,000 screaming brats, that is true.
But it's not polite to brag about the Weezers (not even the Kia commercial)
& namedropping is positively rude (weren't you and the nurse in one of their videos?)

Some tribute bands are creepy.  Seriously, now. Really?
I just can’t pretend to be what I ain’t cos that would just be silly.

COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
Monkey see and monkey do’s
COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
Let me Xerox that for youz

"We like those kids,
we think they're grand
but we ain't no Weezer tribute band."

Well, we may have lost a step or two and walk around in slo-mo  
But that does not mean that I'm going to dress like Rivers Phoenix
...Cuomo.....Whatever! 

Who here wants to hear some Weezer?
That’s nice.  How does it feel to want?
If you’d like to see a band who knows some Weezer,
go to a Weezer concert...ummmm restaurant.

COPYCAT (COPYCAT!) 
COPYCAT (COPYCAT!)
COPY THIS! (COPY THIS!)
COPY THAT!! (COPY THAT!)
COPY RIVERS! (COPY RIVERS!) 
COPY MATT! (COPY MATT!)
COPY BRIAN! (COPY BRIAN!) 
COPY PAT! (COPY PAT!)(DON'T FORGET SCOTT!)
"We like those kids,
we think they're grand
but we ain't no Weezer tribute band."
