They were failing dutifully
If you're going to fail at all
Failing came more easily
Than it did to us all
And I wanted to be there
See them begin
It was easy to see they were
The best band to be in
I gave up drugging
When you spiked my drink
Stopped freeloading
When I could not get in
I gave up singing
When I was told
I could not dance
Knew my place in the world
When I heard them start
Woke up on Sunday morning
With a hole
the size of my pool
Couldnæ?° believe
I� grown so ugly
Couldnæ?° believe
I� been so cruel
I shouldæ?³e set back
Thought about their past
East coast to west coast
How theyæ?? struggled
for their art
Some people
were born to write
Some people
were born to dance
Thought I knew my place in the world
Thought I knew my art
Glad to be there, see them begin
It was easy to see
They were the best band to be

The Auteurs were a British alternative rock band active during the 1990s. The group was primarily a vehicle for the songwriting talents of Luke Haines, who handled guitar, piano and vocals. Their music was characterized by catchy melodies, intelligent and ironic lyrics and influences from post-punk and new wave. Their debut album, *New Wave*, released in 1993, received positive critical acclaim and helped establish them as one of the most interesting bands on the British scene at the time. Among the group's best-known songs are "Teenage Theme", "The Auteurs" and "How To Make It In The Music Business".
