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 spent, it is like my fame, That's quick as it come
No more swimming in my guitar shaped pool No more reporters at my beck and call No more cocaine, now it's only ground chalk And I can't afford the taxi so I'll have to walk
Didn't I have a nice time? Wasn't it such a nice time? Didn't I have a nice time? I can't remember if I had a nice time
I realize I should have stuck to my guns You shit me out like one of the bastard sons And I lost myself, and I know it was wrong And it cost me a lot
Theres no more drinking cause now the club shuts down And I'm out here on my arse with the rest of the clowns Im really scared without my bodyguard And I can't own him 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 can't remember if I had a nice time To be someone must be a wonderful thing
