WANNABE

Same old question everyday
Go ahead, keep asking me
Who I am and what I'll say
Like it matters anyway
Tell me how I could be free
But I see what I wanna see
If there's one thing I'm not gonna be
It's like you, no

You try hard, don't wanna look like you, you try hard
Oh no, no, don't wanna look like you, you try hard

Well, Bowie said, "Remember when
They told Jagger to cut your hair?"
And he said, "What and look like you?"
Well, Jesus, man, I feel that too
If there's one thing I'm not gonna be
It's like you

Don't wanna look like you, you try hard
Oh no, don't wanna look like you, you try hard
No, no, don't wanna look like you, you try hard
Don't wanna look like you, you try hard

But I wanna be John Lennon
Bones made of silk
I'm drinking the champagne
'Cause who needs the milk?
I'm drowning my blues
Oh, in the sea of green
I wear my ego
In black leather sheen
Oh, am I clever?
Or maybe I'm doomed
But I don't wanna know the truth

All the girls come runnin'
In a dream, they spin
There's lipstick smudging
Oh, everywhere I've been
Now am I smoking too much?
Or just paranoid?
I got no pain in my heart because I learned to avoid
Oh, maybe it's over, or maybe I'm doomed
But I don't wanna know the truth

Oh, maybe it's over, maybe I'm doomed
Maybe I just spoke too soon
But I don't wanna know the truth
I don't wanna know the truth
Yeah, I don't wanna know the truth
I wanna be John Lennon
