I want to be like you
In a jam band where the lights crown me and i'm a superstar
I want to see like you
Over me and over them
I want to cry like you
Out my trivial and shallow opinion
On the state of things
I want to try like you
On a soapbox in front of them

And i can't claim to have a reason
Unless it's lost somewhere down deep
Could be i don't get enough attention
If time and talk were cheap
I'd want to be like you

What if i chose to walk like you?
Carrying around my designer personality
And biting my nails
If i could dance like you
I'd be a millionaire
I don't think this me would like you
But, damn just knowing that you are loving
Every single blink byé it makes me smile for you
Is anybody in there?

And i can't claim to have a reason
Unless it's lost somewhere down deep
Could be i don't get enough attention
If time and talk were cheap
I'd want to be like you

And i can't claim to have a reason
Unless it's lost somewhere down deep
Could be i don't get enough attention
If time and talk were cheap
I'd want to be like you
