I wish that I could get up in the early morning timeThings would fall out of the sky into my lapI wish I had the brain of a tyrannosaurus rexSo that I wouldn't have to deal with all this crapI wish that I'd been born with skin that turned to golden brownWhile at the beach relaxing in the summer timeI wish that I was good at football, baseball and lacrosseDarts and basketball, and poker, golf and chessI'm sorry that they didn't hand it to meOn a silver platter, like they did to youI'm sorry that I wasn't able to becomeThe man you think I should aspire toI wish I had the genes of Edwardo VerasteguiThat I was effortlessly masculine as wellI wish that confidence was all you could see in my eyesLike those interviews in locker rooms with talented sports guysI wish I had no self-awareness like the guys I knowFloat right through their lives without a thoughtSongtexteAnd that I didn't give a shit what anybody thought of meThat I was so relaxed you'd think that I was boredI'm sorry that they didn't hand it to meOn a silver platter, like they did to youI'm sorry that I wasn't able to becomeThe man you think I should aspire toI'm sorry that they didn't hand it to meOn a silver platter, like they did to youI'm sorry that I wasn't able to becomeThe man you think I should aspire toI'm sorry that they didn't hand it to meOn a silver platter, like they did to youI'm sorry that I wasn't able to becomeThe man you think I should aspire toI'm sorry that they didn't hand it to meOn a silver platter, like they did to youI'm sorry that I wasn't able to becomeThe man you think I should aspire toI'm sorry that they didn't hand it to meOn a silver platter, like they did to you(Was that my other one?)[[by ear; probably not all right]] Aus Songtexte Mania
