[00:00.00]] | I wish that I could get up in the early morning time |
[00:05.98] | Things would fall out of the sky into my lap |
[00:12.10] | I wish I had the brain of a tyrannosaurus rex |
[00:17.22] | So that I wouldn't have to deal with all this crap |
[00:23.51] | I wish that I'd been born with skin that turned to golden brown |
[00:28.63] | While at the beach relaxing in the summer time |
[00:34.69] | I wish that I was good at football, baseball and lacrosse |
[00:39.77] | Darts and basketball, and poker, golf and chess |
[00:46.56] | I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me |
[00:51.21] | On a silver platter, like they did to you |
[00:57.76] | I'm sorry that I wasn't able to become |
[01:02.48] | The man you think I should aspire to |
[01:17.08] | I wish I had the genes of Edwardo Verastegui |
[01:22.18] | That I was effortlessly masculine as well |
[01:28.37] | I wish that confidence was all you could see in my eyes |
[01:33.34] | Like those interviews in locker rooms with talented sports guys |
[01:39.83] | I wish I had no self-awareness like the guys I know |
[01:44.85] | Float right through their lives without a thought |
[01:51.07] | And that I didn't give a shit what anybody thought of me |
[01:56.14] | That I was so relaxed you'd think that I was bored |
[02:02.82] | I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me |
[02:07.48] | On a silver platter, like they did to you |
[02:14.07] | I'm sorry that I wasn't able to become |
[02:19.14] | The man you think I should aspire to |
[02:48.06] | I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me |
[02:52.66] | On a silver platter, like they did to you |
