I don't give a damn about you
No nothing can change my mind no way
I'm happy just to let you walk away
Don't think about you at night
I'm happy to be alone it's ok
But that was yesterday and now I'm
Driving in my car
Words wont get me far
When they don't mean shhhhhhhhh aaaaargh!

Calling you at 3am and I'm
Standing here right outside the door
And I don't think that my heart can take much more
Scared of cracking up again I just
Want it to be like it was before
Cos I dont think that my heart can take much more

I don't give a damn what you do
I'm going to get with you
Again
And that's the way this night is gonna end
You say that you need time
How long does it take to see that we
Are more than meant to be

And now you're driving in your car
But you won't get far
Cos your car is sshhhhhhhh aaaargh!

Calling you at 3am and I'm
Standing right outside the door
And I don't think that my heart can take much more
Scared of cracking up again I just
Want it to be like it was before
Cos I dont think that my heart can take much more

Driving in my car
Words wont get me far
When they don't mean shhhhhhhhh aaaaargh!

Calling you at 3am and I'm
Standing right outside the door
And I don't think that my heart can take much more
Scared of cracking up again I just
Want it to be like it was before
Cos I dont think that my heart can take much more*

We are dusting off their Greatest Hits CD and crying over ‘3AM’ – tears of pure joy, that is, as the trio announce they are BACK and ready to bring us more pop gems like ‘Crashed the Wedding and ‘Air Hostess’. Ah, what classics. James, Matt, and Charlie are reunited and making all our pop punk dreams come true.

Here’s just 11 – trust us, we could list so many – of the reasons why Busted will forever rock our world.

11 Reasons We'll Love Busted Until The Year 3000

1. They made school uniforms cool again. Joint credit should be given to Avril Lavigne, but at the time, no one looked better in a stripy tie than these guys.

2. 'What I Go to School For'. Speaking of school uniform, let’s never forget their slightly creepy but insanely catchy ode to a hot schoolteacher: “Girlfriends I’ve had plenty/None like Miss Mackenzie…”

3. That line up shot. It’s iconic (and also demonstrated that Charlie Simpson is an absolute GIANT compared to Matt and James).

4. Simmo’s eyebrows. Really need no introduction, Charlie Simpson’s bushy eyebrows set the bar waaaaaay before #onFleek was even a thing. Cara Delevingne, step aside.

5. Their dedication to hair products. Seriously, can we talk about how much gel and Sun-In is going on in this photo?

6. They made us want to take every photo with a fish eye lens. This shot of the boys was the epitome of everything that was cool in, like, 2004.

7. Busted OWNED the air jump. Whether it was on stage, in videos, or bizarrely, on space snowboards (?!) this was the band’s signature move.

8. They wrote ‘Sleeping With The Light On’ and we cried to it. A lot. Look at Charlie’s sad face. So beautiful. So sad.

9. 9. ‘Crashed The Wedding’ – what a tune, what a video, and the soundtrack to every wedding disco since.

10. They had a song on the Thunderbirds soundtrack, and it showcased Charlie’s gravelly, super emosh voice to perfection. All together now… “I’m calling you at 3am…”

10 of 11
11. Their splitting up press conference broke our actual hearts. But it is ok now, because they’ve come back to fix them. Welcome back, boys.
