All I Wanna Do |
Hit it! |
This ain’t no disco |
It ain’t no country club either |
This is LA! |
«All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die,» |
Says the man next to me out of nowhere |
It’s apropos of nothing |
He says his name’s William but I’m sure |
He’s Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy |
And he’s plain ugly to me |
And I wonder if he’s ever had a day of fun in his whole life |
We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday |
In a bar that faces a giant car wash |
The good people of the world are washing their cars |
On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing |
As best they can in skirts in suits |
They drive their shiny Datsuns and Buicks |
Back to the phone company, the record store too |
Well, they’re nothing like Billy and me, cause |
All I wanna do is have some fun |
I got a feeling I’m not the only one |
All I wanna do is have some fun |
I got a feeling I’m not the only one |
All I wanna do is have some fun |
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard |
I like a good beer buzz early in the morning |
And Billy likes to peel the labels |
From his bottles of Bud |
He shreds them on the bar |
Then he lights every match in an oversized pack |
Letting each one burn down to his thick fingers |
Before blowing and cursing them out |
And he’s watching the bottles of Bud as they spin on the floor |
And a happy couple enters the bar |
Dangerously close to one another |
The bartender looks up from his want ads |
All I wanna do is have some fun |
I got a feeling I’m not the only one |
All I wanna do is have some fun |
I got a feeling I’m not the only one |
All I wanna do is have some fun |
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard |
Otherwise the bar is ours, |
