To be someone must be a wonderful thing A famous footballer a rock singer Or a big film star, yes i think that i would like I would like that To be rich and have a lot of fans And lots of girls to prove that i'm a man To be number one - and loved by everyone Getting drugged up with my trendy friends They really dig me, man, and i dig them And 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 c**aine, now it's only ground chalk And i can't afford a taxi so i have to walk Didn't i have a nice time
Wasn't it sucha nice time Didn't i have a nice time I realize i should have stuck to my guns You stood me out just like a ba*tard son And i lost myself, but i know that it was wrong And it cost me a lot No more drinking cause now the club shuts down And i'm out here on my arse with the rest of you clowns I get really scared without my bodyguard And i'm sitting all alone in my expensive yard Didn't i have a nice time Wasn't it such a nice time Didn't i have a nice time Wasn't it such a nice time I remember it was a nice time To be someone must be a wonderful thing
