Biography:
You Am I is a four-piece Australian power pop/alternative rock band, fronted by vocalist/guitarist and songwriter Tim Rogers. They were the first Australian band to have three albums consecutively debut at #1 on the ARIA Charts and are renowned for their energetic live shows.
Tim Rogers formed the first version of the band in Sydney, Australia, with his school friend Nick Tischler and his older brother Jaimme in December 1989. This initial line-up was short lived and by the end of 1990 both Nick and Jaimme had left the band.

The weightlifter and a library tech you know
Made a big decision in the magazine row
I'll open my catalogue just enough to let you in
And she'll drop beers like you drop vitamins
Did you ever never wanna let somebody down?
Was you ever thinking that you'd be a Cathy's clown now she's around
The protein pills and a g-strings you left in her flat
Are just enough to get your dewey decimal back
Ya lift her to work just before your daily workout begins
And she'll stack up like you stack vitamins
Did you ever never wanna let somebody down?
Was you ever thinking that you'd be a Cathy's clown now she's around
