Released today is the new single by Scouting For Girls, 'I wish I was James Bond' ... an obvious time to release it me thinks but a catchy little number non the less.

Here's the video ....

Now sing along ..... {[]



007, Britain’s finest secret agent, licensed to kill.
Mixing business with girls and thrills

I’ve seen you walk the screen, it’s you that I adore.
Since I was a boy I’ve wanted to be like Roger Moore.
A girl in every port, and gadgets up my sleeve.
The world is not enough for the both of us it seems.

Chorus
So I wish I was James Bond, just for the day
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away
And I wish I was James Bond, just for the day
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away

Hello Mr Bond, I’ve been expecting you
Martini in your hand, and that eyebrow that you move
Don’t take this the wrong way, I know it might sound odd
I’m the next double 0, I’m the right man for the job

So I wish I was James Bond, just for the day
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away
And I wish I was James Bond, just for the day
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away

I’ve a license, I’ve a license, I’ve a license to thrill.
I’ve a license, I’ve a license, I’ve a license to kill.
(repeat)

I wanted to be you, I wanted to be you, I wanted to be someone else. (2x)

And I wish I was James Bond, just for the day.
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away.
And I wish I was James Bond, just for the day.
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away.
And I wish I was James Bond, just for the day.
Kissing all the girls, blow the bad guys away

Roger and Sean and Timmy and George and Daniel and Pierce and maybe one day ME!!!

    Very nice LR, thanks for sharing. I'm not going to run out and buy it, but I did enjoy it. Lyrics are pretty good too. According to Wikipedia Scouting for Girls is an up and coming band, wonder what kind of air play the song is getting.

    Quite a bit from what I can tell.I've heard it a few times on the radio and my daughter knows it and put it on her ipod which is a good sign :)

    I wish I were James Bond
    A character of which I'm inordinately fond
    I've always wanted to see my girlfriend
    Meet an untimely end

    Watch her drown and scream out loud
    Go back and make M proud
    Go on a rampage, get in a sulk
    Oh wait - isn't that the Incredible Hulk? :D
    "This is where we leave you Mr Bond."

    Sheeeeeeee... always wears a Rolex watch
    She won't drink Coke when there is Scotch
    Sheeeeee knows it all, and it's no pose....
    And she STRIKES -ra-ta-ta-ta! - like Lady Rose... -{ :D

    TRUFAX: I bought the Scouting for Girls album based entirely on the presence of a song called James Bond. It was in a 2-for-£10, I already had Girls Aloud's Tangled Up, and I saw the words James Bond and that was it.

    That's a pretty bad song. Made me laugh, though. Thanks, LR.

    Have sceen both videos for this song and the one on Youtube is better.
    Bond: You don't think I enjoyed what we did this evening, do you? What I did tonight was for King and country! You don't think it gave me any pleasure, do you?
    Fiona: But of course, I forgot your ego, Mr. Bond. James Bond, who only has to make love to a woman and she starts to hear heavenly choirs singing.

    Its definately NOT in the same caliber as say Duran Duran, Aha, or Chis Cornell, but they must be fans and clearly had fun making it.

    Some songs are to be taken seriously, tis is a bit of fun. - The video is quite classy when you see it without the sound on, as I did at the gym at first!

    Girls Aloud? - For God sake, give them a pie and chips each! - Too thin, too thin!!
    This is Thunderbird 2, how can I be of assistance?
