I want to be a professor in organic chemistry
And do my research at a top grade foreign university
Invent some things while helping one of my most brilliant PhD’s
Get their results published, so everyone accredits it to me
I could give classes to students, but I'll need some free time
In which I fly to Stockholm to accept my second Nobel Prize
I’ll be respected amongst scientists, but what it implies
is that I’ll never sing this song again in all of my life
R: I really want to be be, the drummer and the singer in a band
I’m just a wannabe, ´cause at the same time be the biggest fan
I really want to be better than Casanova as a lover
I want a mistress, but also be a perfect husband and father
I really want to be, real rich without having to do a job
We´re all just a wannabe´s, the criminals who will never get caught
I simply want to, the girl’s guy and as tough as Mr. T.
No one’s more constant and contrasting than me
And I regret that I have not learned young to play the trombone
guitar, piano and drumming, while also blowing saxophone
I could’ve been the new Mozart but I´d be mixed with Elton John
to get with the impact of a son of Madonna and John Lennon
I really feel I have the gift, but can’t control an instrument
So I write undervalued songs and then I sing ‘em in a band
with musicians I accuse of not giving one-hundred percent
and ‘cause they play better than me, no one sees I am the talent
R: I’m just a wannabe, the drummer and the singer in a band
I’m just a wannabe, while at the same time be the biggest fan
I really want to be better than Casanova as a lover
want a mistress, but also be a perfect husband and father
We all just want to be, real rich without having to do a job
We´re just some wannabe's, the criminals who will never get caught
I simply want to, the girl’s guy and as tough as Mr. T.
No one’s more constant and contrasting and
constant and contrasting than
constant and contrasting than me...
