[00:05.48]Shalalala la la la
[00:09.36]Oh uh huh
[00:14.03]
[00:14.04]I was down at the New Amsterdam
[00:17.53]Staring at this yellow-haired girl
[00:19.92]Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation
[00:23.29]With a black-haired flamenco dancer
[00:26.79]You know she dances while his father plays guitar
[00:31.37]She's suddenly beautiful
[00:33.47]And we all want something beautiful
[00:37.75]And I know, wish I was beautiful
[00:40.29]
[00:40.30]So come dance this silence down through the morning
[00:45.31]Shalalala la la la la, yeah, uh huh, yeah
[00:54.79]Cut up, Maria
[00:57.96]Show me some of them Spanish dances
[01:00.53]And pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
[01:08.36]Believe in me, help me believe in anything
[01:14.06]'Cause I wanna be someone who believes, yeah
[01:20.94]
[01:21.93]Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
[01:27.59]And we stare at the beautiful women
[01:30.97]"She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at me."
[01:35.23]Smiling in the bright lights, coming through in stereo
[01:41.28]When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely
[01:47.95]
[01:47.96]Well, I'm gonna paint my picture
[01:52.17]Paint myself in blue, red, black and gray
[01:55.62]All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
[02:00.72]Yeah, well, you know gray is my favorite color
[02:04.66]I felt so symbolic yesterday
[02:09.20]If I knew Picasso
[02:11.78]I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
[02:16.15]
[02:16.16]Mr. Jones and me look into the future
[02:21.80]Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
[02:25.26]"She's looking at you. I don't think so. She's looking at me."
[02:29.46]Standing in the spotlight, I bought myself a gray guitar
[02:35.50]When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely
[02:44.91]I will never be lonely
[02:48.12]Said I'm never gonna be lonely
[02:55.09]
[02:56.56]I want to be a lion
[02:59.54]Yeah, everybody wants to pass as cats
[03:03.38]We all want to be big, big stars, yeah
[03:06.17]But we got different reasons for that
[03:10.44]Believe in me, 'cause I don't believe in anything
[03:16.06]And I, I want to be someone to believe
[03:20.40]To believe, to believe, yeah
[03:23.85]
[03:23.86]Mr. Jones and me, stumbling through the barrio
[03:29.73]Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
[03:33.10]"She's perfect for you, man, there's got to be somebody for me."
[03:37.34]I wanna be Bob Dylan
[03:39.86]Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
[03:43.93]When everybody loves you, ah son
[03:47.87]That's just about as funky as you can be
[03:51.04]
[03:51.05]Mr. Jones and me, staring at the video
[03:56.78]When I look at the television
[03:59.60]I want to see me staring right back at me
[04:04.54]We all wanna be big stars
[04:07.03]But we don't know why and we don't know how
[04:10.33]But when everybody loves me
[04:13.76]I wanna be just about as happy as I can be
[04:18.19]
[04:18.20]Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars
