[Hook]
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Instep, instep, instep

[Verse 1]
You had your photograph, in a magazine
Such a pretty boy, only nineteen
But now you're twenty-three and it's all gone now
You ain't all that, you wanna be somehow
Maybe it was only a dream
You just thought you could be anything that you wanted to be
Sadly, it all went wrong so

[Hook]
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Instep, instep, instep

[Verse 2]
Still just go to the same old clubs
But the new kids have got one above
Music tastes change like the wind
You're doing now what's already been
And you still think that you're so it
Cause you know so and so, and you made a hit
But you can't hear it being played
Cause you my friend have had your day

[Hook]
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep

[Bridge]
Never took a scene check
No you aren't so in step
No you aren't so

[Hook - Extended]
Never took a scene check
Now you aren't so instep
Now you so
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Never took a scene check
Never were a reject
Always looking perfect
Now you aren't so instep
Now you so
Now you so
Now you so (cause you never took a scene check)
