About Show

"The Show" is a song recorded by British girl group Girls Aloud for their second studio album, What Will the Neighbours Say? (2004). It was released by Polydor Records on 28 June 2004, as the lead single from the album. The song was written by Miranda Cooper, Brian Higgins, Lisa Cowling, Jon Shave, and Tim Powell. The synth rhythm, composed by Shave, represents a change in musical direction from the band's previous releases. "The Show" is an uptempo dance-pop and electropop song with elements of the 1990 rave records. "The Show" garnered a positive response from music critics, who deemed it another unique track produced by Xenomania, and it was considered one of the best songs of 2004 by The Times. It debuted and peaked at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart, continuing the band's string of hits by becoming their fifth consecutive single to chart within the top three. The song also peaked inside the top ten in Ireland and certain European territories. In 2006, it charted at number 67 on Australia's singles chart. The accompanying music video was directed by Trudy Bellinger, and portrays the five members as characters working in a salon. To promote the song, Girls Aloud performed "The Show" at the 2004 Royal Variety Performance and at London gay nightclub G-A-Y. It was also performed on five of the group's concert tours. more »

[Repeat: x2]
Should have known, should have cared,
Should have hung around the kitchen in my underwear
Acting like a lady, you should have made me. 
Oh, should have jumped a little higher,
Should have fluttered my mascara like a butterfly. 
Instead of being lazy, it would have saved me. 

Someone saved my heart today
But someone turned the light back on
And ever since you went away
Other crushes feel so wrong

[Repeat: x2]
That special something, that they are hunting
They're always wanting more and more

Nobody sees the show, 
Not til my heart says so, 
If it's not you, oh no
I won't have that,
Boy if you want to be my specialty,
You'll have to get with me and that is that.

[Repeat: x2]
I won't, oh 
Unless you want me to 
I won't oh
Get in the queue
 
[Repeat: x2]
That special something, that they are hunting
They're always wanting more and more

[Repeat: x2]
Nobody sees the show, 
Not til my heart says so, 
If it's not you, oh no, 
I won't have that,
Boy if you want to be my specialty,
you'll have to wait for me and that is that.

[Repeat: x2]
Should have known, should have cared,
Should have hung around the kitchen in my underwear
Acting like a lady, you should have made me. 
Oh should have jumped a little higher,
Should have fluttered my mascara like a butterfly. 
Instead of being lazy, it would have saved me.
