Mexican Wrestler
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes I wish that I was an angel
A fallen angel who visits your dreams
And in those dreams I'd blow you a message that says
You really want me
Sometimes I wish that I was a wrestler
A mexican wrestler in a red vinyl mask
And I might grab you, body slam you, and maybe cause
Physical harm
But when we would land
I might take pity on you
I can crack all your ribs
But I can't break your heart
You will never love me
And this I can't forgive
That you will never love me
As long as I will live
Sometimes I wish that I was a beauty
A beautiful girl who was still 21
And I'd turn your head as well as your buddies
And I could afford to play hard to get
We'd go to parties and you'd show me off
And I'd go home with someone else
You will never love me
And this I can't forgive
And it will always bug me
As long as I will live
You will never love me
Why should I even care
It's not that you're so special
You're just the cross I bear
You will never love me
