To Be Someone |
| To be someone must be a wonderful thing |
| A famous footballer a rock singer |
| or a big film star, yes I think I would like that |
| To be rich and have lots of fans |
| have lots of girls to prove that I’m a man |
| And be No. 1 — and liked by everyone |
| Getting drugged up with my trendy friends |
| They really dig me and I dig them |
| And the bread I spend — is like my fame — it’s quickly diminished |
| And there’s no more swimming in a guitar shaped pool |
| no more reporters at my beck and call |
| no more cocaine it’s only ground chalk |
| no more taxis now we’ll have to walk |
| But didn’t we have a nice time — |
| didn’t we have a nice time |
| Oh wasn’t it such a fine time |
| I realize I should have stuck to my guns |
| instead shit out to be one of the bastard sons |
| and lose myself — I know it was wrong — but it’s cost me a lot |
| And there’s no more drinking after the club shuts down, |
| I’m out on me arse with the rest of the clowns |
| It’s really frightening without a bodyguard |
| so I stay confined to my lonely room |
