When I was a little boy I wanted to grow up to be
|
Steve McQueen Steve McQueen
|
The coolest doggone motherscratcher on the silver screen
|
|
I'd drive real fast everywhere no one would ever catch me
|
And I'd kick your ass if you pissed me off so be careful what you ask me
|
And I'd never have an empty bottle or an empty bed
|
And as cool as Paul Newman is I bet Steve could whup his head
|
|
Steve McQueen......
|
|
Bullet was my favorite movie that I'd ever seen
|
I totaled my go-cart trying to imitate that chase scene
|
That Duster had six hubcaps, know what I mean
|
And I love the way they all flew off when it landed in that ravine
|
|
Steve McQueen......
|
|
I really loved The Getaway back when I was eight
|
That pussy Alec Baldwin sucked in the remake
|
And speaking of pussy, I guess Steve got it all
|
He fucked Faye Dunaway and he fucked Ali McGraw
|

Steve McQueen Steve McQueen
|
When I was a little boy I wanted to grow up to be
|
Steve McQueen Steve McQueen
|
The coolest goddamn mothefucker on the silver screen
|
(yee-haw)
|
|
[suddenly the scene turns slow and somber, as a campfire harp plays in the background]
|
|
I went to see The Hunter on my first date
|
The Hunter was the last movie Steve McQueen lived to make
|
They took my drivers license when I was just sixteen
|
The year Mesothelioma killed Steve McQueen
