lirik lagu scatman john – (i want to) be someone
i wanna be someone!
[scatting]
whoa, i wanna be someone
(wanna be someone)
[scatting]
spendin’ all your time never knowin’ what to say
is my mode of operation, day after day.
ain’t got no money, i don’t even drive a car
and my nike tennis shoes ain’t takin’ me too far.
got a s-xy girlfriend, hot on the scene
her home is page 20, playboy magazine.
she’s got a great job on the hotel circuit
if you press the right channel and you know how to work it.
i wanna be someone, i don’t wanna be me
i’m always feelin’ less than everybody i see
you ask me how i’m doing and i’ll tell you “just fine”
but on the inside, swear to god, i’m losin’ my mind.
[scatting]
i wanna be someone
not just anybody, wanna be someone
someone like you
i’ve got to be someone
’cause i don’t know how to be me, whoa.
i’m always so impressed with an american express card
pickin’ up the ladies in a brand-new mercedes.
hop in my yacht, take a cruise to monte carlo
livin’ for today, never thinkin’ ’bout tomorrow.
i’m everybody’s best friend, travel with the jet set
the only folks i ever meet are livin’ on the back street.
every day’s another empty day in the life
of a guy without a face, always feelin’ out of place.
i wanna be someone, i don’t wanna be me
i’m always feelin’ less than everybody i see
you ask me how i’m doing and i’ll tell you “just fine”
but on the inside, swear to god, i’m losin’ my mind.
[scatting]
i wanna be someone
not just anybody, wanna be someone
someone like you
i’ve got to be someone
’cause i don’t know how to be me, whoa.
i wanna be someone, i don’t wanna be me
i’m always feelin’ less than everybody i see
you ask me how i’m doing and i’ll tell you “just fine”
but on the inside, swear to god, i’m losin’ my mind, losin’ my mind, losin’ my mind.
i wanna be someone
not just anybody, wanna be someone
someone like you
i’ve got to be someone
’cause i don’t know how to be me, whoa.
