Current song lyrics
So you wanna be a rock n' roll star?<br /><br />Well, listen now to what I say<br /><br />Just get an electric guitar<br /><br />And take some time<br /><br />Learn how to play<br /><br />Just learn how to play<br /><br /><br /><br />Well, I was down at the New Amsterdam<br /><br />Just staring at this yellow-haired girl<br /><br />Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with a black-haired flamingo dancer<br /><br />You know she dances while his father plays guitar<br /><br />And she's suddenly beautiful<br /><br />And we all want something beautiful<br /><br />Man, I wish I was beautiful...<br /><br /><br /><br />Lalalala<br /><br /><br /><br />Oh, cut up, Maria<br /><br />Come on, show me some of them Spanish dances<br /><br />And pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones<br /><br />Oh, believe in me, come on, help me believe in anything<br /><br />'Cause I wanna be someone who believes<br /><br /><br /><br />Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairytales<br /><br />And we stare at the beautiful women<br /><br />"She's looking at you, nananana, she's looking at me"<br /><br />Standing in this bright light coming through his stereo<br /><br />When everybody loves you<br /><br />You should never be lonely<br /><br /><br /><br />Well, I wanna paint myself a picture<br /><br />I wanna paint myself in blue and red and black and gray<br /><br />All the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful<br /><br />Yeah, you know gray?<br /><br />It's my favorite color<br /><br />I just get so confused every day<br /><br />But if I knew Picasso, I would buy myself a gray guitar and play<br /><br /><br /><br />Mr. Jones and me look into the future<br /><br />We stare at all the beautiful women<br /><br />"Man, she's looking at you, man, I don't think so she's looking at me"<br /><br />Standing in this spotlight<br /><br />Look at me I, I got myself this gray guitar<br /><br />Man, when everybody loves me<br /><br />I hope I never get lonely<br /><br /><br /><br />Lalalala<br /><br /><br /><br />Yeah, I wanna be a lion<br /><br />I know, I know, everybody wants to pass as cats<br /><br />We all wanna be big, big, big, big, big stars<br /><br />Yeah, but then we get second thoughts about that<br /><br />So, believe in me<br /><br />Man, I don't believe in anything<br /><br />And I don't wanna be someone to believe<br /><br />You should not believe in me<br /><br /><br /><br />'Cause Mr. Jones and me, we just went stumbling through the barrio<br /><br />We stare at all the beautiful women<br /><br />"Man, she's perfect for you"<br /><br />There's got to be someone for me<br /><br /><br /><br />I wanna be Bob Dylan<br /><br />Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky<br /><br />Well, man, when everybody loves you<br /><br />Sometimes that's just about as fucked up as you can be<br /><br />Well, can't you hear me cause I'm dreaming<br /><br />But I did not go outside yesterday<br /><br />Oh, don't wake me cause I was dreaming<br /><br />And I might just stay inside again today<br /><br />'Cause Mr. Jones and me, we don't see each other much anymore...
