[Verse 1]
Laugh track on a TV show
Echoes in the dark alone
I go to bed feeling bad
That I’m the reason that you’re sad

[Pre-Chorus 1]
January to December
Do you wanna be a member?

[Chorus]
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?

[Verse 2]
I feel like if I’m too kind
Then you will only change your mind
Take advantage of my heart
And I’ll go back into the dark

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Love will never be forever
Feelings are just like the weather
January to December
Do you want to be a member?

[Chorus]
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?

[Bridge]
Oooh
Somebody like me?
Oooh
Somebody like me?
Oooh
Somebody like me?
Oooh

[Chorus]
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?

[Chorus Variation]
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?
Oh! Oh!
Do you want to be with somebody like me?
Lonely hearts club
Do you want to be with somebody like me?

Marina Diamandis

Marina Lambrini Diamandis, better known as MARINA (formerly Marina and the Diamonds), is a Welsh singer-songwriter and musician.

Growing up in Wales, England and Greece, Marina became “obsessed with becoming a singer, almost as if it was a disease.” After moving to London, it took four years before she established herself as a singer-songwriter. After several independently-released EPs, she placed second on the BBC Sound of 2010 list. In 2010, her debut album, The Family Jewels, was released to critical acclaim and chart success, eventually being certified Gold in the UK.

Her 2012 sophomore album, Electra Heart, was a concept album in which she embraced the titular persona—a vapid, blonde “straight-up pop star” who arose out of her label’s demands for a more commercial pop sound and Marina’s desire to maintain artistic integrity. It became her most successful album, debuting atop the UK, Scotland and Ireland album charts.
