Ya Wanna Be Someone

Said you'd been born somebody rich

A royal flush, you're one

While counting every stitch

I bet that's just no fun

An empty mind, an empty heart

It's crystal clear that you

Would never play a part

You know, you know it's true

Yeah, people were laughing behind your back

Oh, one step away, don't know where you're at

You wanna be someone

Ya think that you've got it made

You're like an empty gun

You're not thing you portrayed

Walking through paradise out of your head

You wanna be someone

You know it's all in your mind

You're not the seventh son

Although you crossed every line

Writing the stories that no-one has read

We're all just men that have to face

We're not above, don't act

Don't give that false embrace

You smiled just to distract

Well you believe there's just one way

So take it to the end

'Cause that what fools would say

You know, you just pretend

Yeah, are you still preaching, is that a fact

You, gideon's bible and zodiac

You wanna be someone

Ya think that you've got it made

You're like an empty gun

You're not thing you portrayed

Walking through paradise out of your head

You wanna be someone

You know it's all in your mind

You're not the seventh son

Although you crossed every line

Writing the stories that no-one has read

A selfish man making plans to screw the never never

Always obsessed trying to get what he can

A selfish man thinking he's the one to be so clever

Might be well dressed but he don't understand

You wanna be someone

Ya think that you've got it made

You're like an empty gun

You're not thing you portrayed

Walking through paradise out of your head

You wanna be someone

You know it's all in your mind

You're not the seventh son

Although you crossed every line

Writing the stories that no-one has read
