[Version 1]
|
|
It may sound stupid when I say it out loud
|
Like I'm just jealous of his silver cloud
|
He looks real good he drinks diet Coke
|
He gets his NME's sent by air not boat
|
|
I wish I was him
|
He gets the women at his feet
|
With all his cool friends
|
He gets his records for free
|
I wish I was him
|
He has no enemies
|
I wish I was him
|
|
He's got six different flannel shirts
|
Airwalks not thongs
|
He even understands the words to Pavement songs
|
He's got his new guitar toys
|
He loves Smudge and the Beastie Boys
|
|
I wish I was him
|
He gets the girls at his feet
|
With all his cool friends
|
He gets his records for free
|
I wish I was him
|
He has no enemies
|
I wish I was him
|
|
I feel much better now I've let it all out
|
He's got big biceps and a masculine shout
|
I don't want to sound like I'm trying to be mean
|
But he plays guitar much faster than me
|
|
I wish I was him
|
He gets the girls at his feet
|
With all his cool friends
|
He gets his records for free
|
I wish I was him
|
He has no enemies
|
I wish I was him
|
|
I wish I was him
|
He gets the girls at his feet
|
I wish I was him
|
He has no enemies
|
With all his cool friends
|
He gets his records for free
|
I wish I was him
|
I wish I was him
|
|
[Version 2]

[Spoken: Y'know he even knows the guys from Dinosaur Jr.
|
And he played on the first Blake Babies Album, how awesome
|
And you know that black stripey shirt he's got?
|
Well, I've got the same one, except it's red, but it's the same, y'know what I mean]
