To Be Someone

To be someone must be a wonderful thing
I could be a footballer or a rock singer
Or a big film star yea I think that I would like
I would like that

To be rich and have a lot of fans
To have a lot of girls to prove that I'm a man
And to be number one loved by everyone

Getting drugged up with my trendy friends
They really dig me man and I dig them
But the money that I spend
It is like my fame and it's quickly gone

No more swimming in my guitar shaped pool
No more reporters at my beck and call
No more cocaine now it's only ground chalk
And I can't afford a taxi so I'll have to walk

Didn't I have a nice time [x3]

I realize I should have stuck to my guns
They stamped me out just like a bastard son
And I lost myself and I know that it was wrong
And it cost me a lot

There is no more drinking now the club shut down
And I'm out here on my ass with the rest of the clowns
I get really scared without my bodyguard
When I'm sitting all alone in my expensive yard

Didn't I have a nice time [x3]
Did I have a nice time [x2]
I can't remember if I had a nice time
Did I have a nice time

To be someone must be a wonderful thing
