Wannabe

That's what I'll always want to be

Oh that hollywood fiction
Has really got me itchin'
I think I'm gonna explode
Explode, explode, explode
I think I'm gonna explode
Explode, explode, explode

I'll never be this thing you want me to be
But I will always want to be
A wannabe
That is what I'd truly like to be
I just wanna be me
I just wanna be me
I just wanna be me

I'm a contender
The neverender
I'll never surrender
Can they not remember

The feel of a skin so tender
Blood burning hot
Turning your brain into a cinder

Those goo goo dolls
With their noses so tall
All brake and no tread
They'll transition to fall
Looking back through it all
No thinking at all
At all, at all, at all
No thinking at all
At all, at all, at all

The worst fakes start picking up shakes
As the mob starts to show the stakes
They were playing for
Won't see me doing that
That, that, that
Doing that
That, that, that

I'll never be this thing you want me to be
But I will always be
A wannabe
That is what I'd truly like to be
I just wanna be me
I just wanna be me
I just wanna be me

I'm a contender
The neverender
I'll never surrender

I just wanna be me
I just wanna be me
I just wanna be me

Author's Note

Kind of iffy on the end. I really wanted to loop that contender bit again but I wanted to end on this line too still. Oh well. Maybe it works.
