Caterpillar crawling up the big phone pole |
|
Is there somebody that you want to talk to? |
|
You know that pretty soon you'll be able to fly |
|
How is this going to affect you? |
|
Do you think it might wreck you? |
|
Your friends might reject you, say you took it too far |
|
Soul Asylum |
|
You said you want to be want to be want to be want to be |
|
Hooked on glossy pictures and drugs I've never seen |
|
We'll treat you with advice from a fashion magazine |
|
One day she just walked into that magazine |
|
I wonder if she'll ever come back |
|
And they all said she would crack |
|
They said her mind was one track, |
|
Said she took it too far, you said you |
|
Want to be want to be, want to be, want to be, closer to the stars |
|
Every time you move your lips |
|
Yesterday you were too young |
|
Tomorrow you will be too old |
|
To regret all the things you've done who're you trying to hustle ? |
|
Somebody you wanna show your muscle? |
|
Second hand excuses never went too far |
|
What's this scene you're making? |
|
Your ideas have been taken |
|
We'll seek when you awaken alone in someone's car |
|
You just stood there shaking, stood there shaking |
|
They said you were faking, you said you |
|
Want to be want to be, want to be, want to be |
|
Closer to the stars, closer to the stars |
