Oingo Boingo - Who Do You Want To Be lyrics

rate me

CHORUS Who do you want to be today? Who do you want to be? Who do you want to be today? Do you want to be just like someone on T.V.? Oh boredom is so terrible, it's like a dread disease Nothing could be worse than when there's nothing on T.V. I'd rather be a cowboy than to stare blank at the walls I've been reborn so many times I can't remember them all (And I say) CHORUS Just like someone on T.V.! I think I'll be a teddy boy, I think I'll be a hunk I think I'll be a tough guy and I think I'll be a punk I might just be a fashion star All dressed in frilly rags Or perhaps I'll cross the other side and walk around in Drag! CHORUS Just like somebody on T.V.! Do you like to be just like a rock in the middle of the sea Do you want to suffer by yourself in a pool of blissful misery Do you want to feel like a saint in artists' clothes With a rosary in your hand Do you wanna be crazy like Van Gogh like a stranger in a Strange, strange land Would you rather push the buttons And be feared by all humanity Or perhaps you'd like to be a bum Do you wanna be stupid, just like me CHORUS Just like somebody on T.V.! Who do you want to be . . . . . . .
