Shalalalalalala
I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-haired girl
Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with this black-haired flamenco dancer, you'll know
She dances while his father plays guitar
She's suddenly beautiful
We all want something beautiful
Man,I know I wish I'd was beautiful
So come dance this silence down through the morning
Shalalalalalalalala yeah
Cut up, Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances
And pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
Believe in me
Help me believe in anything
'Cause I wanna be someone who believes
Yeah, Ohw
Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
And we stared at the beautiful women
"She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
Smiling in the bright lights
Coming through in stereo
When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely
Well I want to paint my picture
Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
All the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
Yeah well you know
Gray is my favorite color
I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew Picasso
I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
Mr. Jones and me look into the future
Yeah and we stare at the beautiful women
"She looking at you.
Uh, I don't think so. She's looking at me."
Standing in the spotlight
And well I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely
I want to be a lion
Eh, Everybody wants to pass as cats
We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for that
Believe in me because I don't believe in anything and I wanna be someone who believes
Mr. Jones and me stumbling to the barrio
Yeah we stare at the beautiful women
"She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be somebody for me."
I want to be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
Well when everybody loves you, son, that's just about as funky as can be
Whohow, yeah yeah..,
Mr. Jones and me staring at the video
When I look at the television, I want to see me staring right back at me
We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why
and we don't know how
But when everybody loves me, I'm going to be just as happy as can be
Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars...
