Lyrics

Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Am a dull and simple lad Cannot tell water from champagne And I have never met the Queen And I wish I could have all he has got I wish I could be like David Watts Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa And when I lie on my pillow at night I dream I could fight like David Watts And lead the school team to victory Take my exams and pass the lot I wish I could be like David Watts I wish I could be like David Watts Conduct my life like like David Watts I wish I could be like David Watts Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa He is the head boy at the school He is the captain of the team His is so gay and fancy free And I wish I could have all he has got I wish I could be like David Watts Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa And all the girls in the neighborhood Try to go out with David Watts The try their best but can't succeed For he is of pure and noble creed I wish I could be like David Watts I wish I could be like David Watts I wish I could be like like David Watts I wish I could be like David Watts Wish I could be like Wish I could be like Wish I could be like Wish I could be like Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (David Watts) Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (David Watts) Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (David Watts) Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (David Watts) Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (David Watts) Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (David Watts)
