[originally by Noise Addict][Version 1]It may sound stupid when I say it out loudLike I'm just jealous of his silver cloudHe looks real good he drinks diet CokeHe gets his NME's sent by air not boatI wish I was himHe gets the women at his feetWith all his cool friendsHe gets his records for freeI wish I was himHe has no enemiesI wish I was himHe's got six different flannel shirtsAirwalks not thongsHe even understands the words to Pavement songsHe's got his new guitar toysHe loves Smudge and the Beastie Boys*I wish I was himHe gets the girls at his feetWith all his cool friendsHe gets his records for freeI wish I was himHe has no enemiesI wish I was himI feel much better now I've let it all outHe's got big biceps and a masculine shoutI don't want to sound like I'm trying to be meanBut he plays guitar much faster than me*RepeatI wish I was himHe gets the girls at his feetI wish I was himHe has no enemiesWith all his cool friendsHe gets his records for freeI wish I was himI wish I was him[Version 2]Well, it may sound stupid when I say it out loudLike I'm just jealous of his silver cloudHe's crazy as hell, he drinks diet CokeHe gets his NME's sent by air not boatI wish I was himHe gets the girls at his feetWith all his cool friendsHe gets his records for freeI wish I was himHe has no enemiesI wish I was himWell, he's got six different flannel shirtsAirwalks not thongsHe even understands the words to Pavement songsHe's got his little fan club and his guitar toysHe loves Smudge and the Beastie Boys*I wish I was himHe gets the girls at his feetWith all his cool friendsHe gets his records for freeI wish I was himHe has no enemiesI wish I was himWell, I feel much better now I've let it all out'Cause he's got big biceps and a masculine shoutI don't want to sound like I'm being meanBut he plays guitar much faster than me*Repeat[Spoken:Y'know he even knows the guys from Dinosaur Jr.And he played on the first Blake Babies Album, how awesomeAnd you know that black stripey shirt he's got?Well, I've got the same one, except it's red, but it's the same, y'knowwhat I mean]I wish I was himHe gets the girls at his feetWith all his cool friendsHe gets his records for freeI wish I was himHe has no enemiesI wish I was himI wish I was him
