Who Do You Want To Be |
Who do you want to be today? |
Who do you want to be? |
Who do you want to be today? |
Do you want to be just like someone on TV? |
Oh, boredom is so terrible; |
it’s like a dread disease |
Nothing could be worse |
Than when there’s nothing on TV |
I’d rather be a cowboy than to stare blank at the walls |
I’ve been reborn so many times |
I can’t remember them all |
(And I say) |
Who do you want to be today? |
Who do you want to be? |
Who do you want to be today? |
Do you want to be just like someone on TV? |
Just like somebody on TV! |
I think I’ll be a teddy boy; |
I think I’ll be a hunk |
I think I’ll be a tough guy and I think I’ll be a punk |
I might just be a fashion star |
All dressed in frilly rags |
Or perhaps I’ll cross the other side |
And walk around in |
Drag! |
Who do you want to be today? |
Who do you want to be? |
Who do you want to be today? |
Do you want to be just like someone on TV? |
Just like somebody on TV! |
Do you like to be just like a rock |
In the middle of the sea? |
Do you want to suffer by yourself |
In a pool of blissful misery? |
Do you feel like a saint in artists' clothes |
With a rosary in your hand? |
Do you wanna be crazy like Van Gogh, like |
A stranger in a |
Strange, strange land |
Would you rather push the buttons |
And be feared by all humanity? |
Or perhaps you’d like to be a bum? |
Do you wanna be stupid, just like me? |
Who do you want to be today? |
Who do you want to be? |
Who do you want to be today? |
Do you want to be just like someone on TV? |
Just like somebody on TV! |
Who do you want to be??? |
