Marillion - Three Minute Boy Lyrics
Here today
Gone this afternoon
Another tune we almost remember
What's the story
Sex and drugs again
The clock's already ticking
La la la la
When he was young
Staring at the TV
He watched the fun happenin' to other people
Now they scream
As they run after him
Like a dream
Like Elvis and the Beatles
He only did it for a joke
They played him on the radio
From Tokyo to Timbuktu
A three minute boy, ain't that somethin'
They named their children after him
The good times rolled beneath his feet
He skipped along the one-way street
She's a pretty girl
She don't know how it started
She made a movie
He almost remembered
She measured up
They moved into a basement
"We're so in love!"
They giggled to the nation
La la la la
Three minute millionaire they said
The numbers rattled round his head
They spun him three times round the globe
She waited patiently at home
And all the pretty girls wanted him
In places that he'd never been
Too much love will do you in
Forgive Forgive Forgive Forgive
Yeah Yeah Ooo
Three minute kid is here again
Surrounded by three minute friends
He found someone to understand
To shock the world and hold his hand
No religion, no restraint
No direction, no complaints
No future and no way out
No time now to think about it
All the money's gone
He don't know what he spent it on
Girlfriends gone off with the Jag
Gone back to her mum and dad
He's curled up on the studio floor
He just can't do it anymore
The flashgun went off without warning
He'll read about it tomorrow morning
She's goin' out with someone new
In this week at number two
Three minute boy ain't that somethin'

How in Gods name do you thumb this band down???????
It's just a sign of deep love...
01:18 THATS exactly why we still love MARILLION ... we are a community, may be a small but a great one!
Now they scream! Shut up!

Best band in the f-ing world, no question. Outstanding performance of an awesome song.
Марілліони - ви НАЙКРАЩІ !!!
Ingeniously magical, timing is superb. Totally awesome.
I am aware of the fact that I will never see HMARILLION.,oh well.
Fantastique guitar solo !
Just a word: GREAT!!!!!
from radiation album, the most underated marillion's work, however one of best pieces to me. Very bluesy, i love it!!
What a great band!!! Love it
I really love this band and his music!
I discovered this song this year in Paris... It was for me FABULOUS and FANTASTIC !!! I love Hogarth. mm

@Blair McAlisterThere was a guy at the Marillion weekend at De Montfort Hall in the UK this weekend just gone....was that you ?
The adult in me prefers Hmsrillio n.
Como sempre maravilhosos Marillion, todos eles. Parabéns e continuação de muito sucesso.
Marillion fans are wonderful
3.45 you can't do that in music......breaking every rule.
Rothery... Dios...
¡Uno de los guitarristas mas infravalorados!
Titan471 que querés decir? Lo podés justificar?
Pues no es el tipo de guitarrista que toca a la velocidad de la luz, sin embargo el hace hablar a la guitarra, te puede hacer viajar con escuchar sus solos. Pues para ser buen guitarrista no es necesario tener una técnica perfecta, sino también la capacidad de expresar emociones a través de la guitarra, algo que no todos tienen, pero Rothery tiene esa magia. Lamentablemente Marillion no es una banda tan conocida como otras, por lo cual casi nadie destaca a Rothery como guitarrista.
vos lo dijiste... hace hablar a la guitarra... no confundas velocidad con virtuosismo... el tipo es en su género, el mejor... a mi entender
Breathtaking. ...
This is such a typical Marillion-song of which you may dislike the album-version at first and when these guys perform it live on stage (ofc with the interaction of the crowd) it really appears to be truly a great song. It just shows that Marillion is one of the best (if not the best...) live-performing bands in the entire world. The guitarsolo Steve Rothery played on this song was really top... ;))
it's true
Na nanana na nanana na nanana na. Now they scream !!!
Amazing song!!!
Marillion the best
Marillion for life! Please come to India.
КРАСОТИЩЕ
Un himno que sonó espectacular en el caupolican
in the day yesterday , for the first time I hear this song live . A really incredible experience
from Argentina
lalalala lalalala lalalalalaaaa! Marillion crowds give me goosebumps.
The Weekends are our Marillion heaven. In my experience, having 3000 true fans in one single place is what gives a special vibe about it. Now I've been in several gigs, the band is still brilliant, but the crowd on the Weekends is way better.
Wow, I love your name!!
True, they are magical experiences!
Monserrat Fallas Madrigal
bvale hongo como canta este won ,fome ,fome ,mejor fish mejor fish
Steve puts me to sleep
I was there - and yes we screamed ! :-)
Once again a song that is better live. The album track is good but live to me is better. Awesome live
It's like a jammin session!! I really really love this live!
I love that Crowd.....What a Family!
Best family in the world. Suddenly the world gave me a big hug!
Yes my family. The world suddenly got smaller... I live you all Marillionites.
Absolutely staggering...!
I once shall go to Holland and take part of a Weekend Session. Just imagine three days of Marillion Live...that would be an unforgettable experience I tell you.
AWESOME!!!!!
I've got to get to the next convention. So cool.
No crowd sing like a marillion crowd , fantastic :-)
Epic!!!
the best!!!
now they scream!!!!
Anyone else notice the angel in the front row at the 2:00 mark? She is cute! I bet H noticed her. ;)
Only marillion could take make such a tongue in cheek song about their most successful song
Super, wenn nicht diese nervige Stimme wär,ist halt ohne FISH aber ansonsten TOLL.
The BEST chain for Marillion is : Svd00
It really is, it never did all that much for me on the album, but it is fantastic live!
was there at the Paradise. I agree.
this song is best served LIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now they scream ..........
BELLISSIMA CANZONE
Bloody marvellous :-)
Always happens
Steve Rothery - Guitar God
This is one of those songs that was good, but not on my regular "play list" . After seeing this version and seeing it live in Boston...now it's a favorite listen...
he says "now they scream"... and they scream...
i cant understand what happens at 1:06. The lyrics is correct: Now they scream
As they run after him .... and he abort singing like a error.
i love marillion
Sensacional!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH !... ^^
Now they scream...... =)
