Beck - Mercedes Beck lyrics

[Janis Joplin] I'd like to do a song of great social and political import Oh lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends So oh lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz [Beck] I'm coming over; see me down at the station by the lane With my hands in my pocket Jingling a wish coin, that I stole from a fountain That was drowning all the cares in the world When I get older, climbing up on the back porch fence Just to see the dogs running With a ring and a question and my shivering Voice is singing through a crack in the window Na na na na na, I better go it alone Na na na na na, I better go it alone Na na na na na [Janis Joplin] Oh lord, won't you buy me a color TV (Na na na na na) Dialing for dollars is trying to find me (Na na na na na) I wait for delivery each day until three (Na na na na na) So oh lord, won't you buy me a color TV (Na na na na na) [Beck] I'm coming over; see you down at the station by the lane With my hands in my pocket Jingling a wish coin, that I stole from a fountain That was drowning all the cares in the world When I get older, climbing up on the back fence Pointing to the dogs standing firm With a ring and a question, dime-a-dozen In a voice that was singing underneath my window Na na na na na, I better go it alone Na na na na na, I better go it alone Na na na na na, I better go it alone Na na na na na, I better go it alone, Na na na na na [Janis] Oh lord, won't you buy me a night on the town (Na na na na na) I'm counting on you, lord, please don't let me down (Na na na na na) Prove that you love me and buy the next round (Na na na na na) Oh lord, won't you buy me a night on the town (Na na na na na) Everybody! Oh lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends So oh lord, won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz Thats it!
