about

That's Jeremy Paxman and Magnus Magnusson, FYI.

lyrics

I used to have ambition, thought I was on a mission,
couldn’t wait to go to college and stuff my brain with general knowledge
the plan was to learn about everything, then go on a quiz show - and win!
to come back with the loot... but I was told the pursuit of trivia was a trivial pursuit

...and that no-one ever has all the answers
apart from Jeremy and Magnus
nobody will ever prove them wrong
and so I turned myself to earning
instead of devoting my head to learning
now I wish that I had been more strong

So if you want to be a star but the world objects
don’t let them suppress your specialist subject
but you don’t need my tips ‘cos you followed your dream
you’re a superstar of the small screen
and now you're out facing the bright lights
and I'm stuck at home in the gloom
you're up there holding the trophy
and I'm just masterminding in my room
