I could be happy, I could be glad
|
I could be carefree, I could be bad
|
Life would be worthwhile, I could be true
|
I could be me, if it wasn't for you.
|
|
I could be handsome, I could be rich
|
I could be really out of this ditch
|
Making my fortune, making my bed
|
I could let fame go to my head.
|
|
You keep your carrots, I don't want one
|
I want my freedom, I want some fun
|
Juxtaposition, what did I say
|
What a position, I'm in today.
|
|
You are my drawback, you are my pain
|
Standing in my way, crowding my brain
|
Why be so selfish, I'm just a fool
|
Why be so stubborn, you're just a mule.
|
|
La la la la la, la la la la
|
La la la la la, la la la la
|
(Repeat and fade).
