Lyrics
Well, I wonder what it's like to be a rainmaker
I wonder what it's like to know that I made the rain
I'd store it in boxes with little yellow tags on every one
And you can come and see them when I'm done
When I'm done
I wonder what it's like to be a superhero
I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown, yeah
From some other planet, I'd get this funky high on the yellow sun
Boy, I bet my friends will all be stunned
They're stunned
Yeah
Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
If I was someone else, would this all fall apart?
Strange, where were you when we started this gig?
I wish the real world would just stop hasslin' me
Do you?
Do you?
And me
Well, I wonder what it's like to be the head honcho
I wonder what I'd do if they all did just what I said (just what I said)
Well, I'd shout out an order
"I think we're out of this, man, get me some"
Boy, don't make me wanna change my tone
My tone
Yeah
Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
If I was someone else, would this all fall apart?
Strange, where were you when we started this gig?
I wish the real world would just stop hasslin' me
Please don't change, please don't break
'Cause the only thing that seems to work at all is you
Please don't change at all for me
To you and you,to me, yeah
Yeah
Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?
If I was someone else, would this all just fall apart?
Strange, where were you when we started this gig?
I wish the real world would just stop hasslin' me
I wish the real world,would just stop hasslin' me
I wish the real world would just stop hasslin' me
To you and me
