The Band Named Dave - The Story of Dave Lyrics

This is a story about the man named Dave
That's right, it's the story of the band named Dave
Dave got his start at a very young age
Got his start as a rock 'n' roll band, yeah Dave

Dave
A rock 'n' roll soul never was so brave
Yeah Dave
Show 'em where you came from!

Dave grew up in a tiny little town
With a tiny little dream of super rock stardom
The dream became real when he learned that he could sing
Play guitar, and Dave played their first shitty gigs together
Dave blew up, a phenomenon superstar garage band
Who never played in actual garages
Dave just played the Superbowl half time show
They just found themselves at the end of the rainbow
The band's dreamin' of the moment
Livin' Dave's dream, aw yeah, it's a Dave dream
Pipe dream, nu-uh, that's for plumbers
And Dave ain't a plumber, he's a rock 'n' roll band, yeah!

So goes the legend of the band named Dave
That's right, it's the legend of the band named Dave
Dave changed the world at a very young age
Saved the world, what a rock 'n' roll band, yeah Dave!

Dave
Your rock 'n' roll soul just saved the day
Yeah Dave
Send 'em back on where they came from!

Dave's story takes a lot of twists, a lot of turns
He meets anti-Dave and finds he doesn't really like those other fellas
Adversity and hardship, Dave overcomes 'em
Makes it home safe from World War Dave, keeps the band together
Takes a couple months to save some money for the studio
Then builds a basement studio and makes some shitty records there
The songs blow up, Dave's a phenomenon, superstar garage band
Who tours the world in actual garages
Dave's flying circus is the center of the universe
A multi-platinum hit, his first EP becomes a billion-seller
Dave becomes a household name, becomes a video game
And guest appears on an episode of Homestar Runner
The band's dreamin' of the moment, livin' Dave's dream
Aw yeah, it's a Dave meme
Dank meme, nu-uh that's for stoners, and Dave ain't a stoner
They're a drug all on his own, yeah!
