Mr Wannabe
Chorus:
Hey Mr. Wannabe
You never had a hit record.
Even though you could.
You never got on the charts
But you could of been on top.
Hey Mr.Wannabe is all you'll ever be.
Because you never really tried.
Crying all the time.
Sitting on your laurels.
Will get you nowhere fast
Hey Mr. Wannabe
Wake up and smell the coffee.
To make a car run you have to turn the key
V-1
He knew he had what it takes.
He really never doubted
If only others could see
See how he really could sing
Why is it he remains a Mr.Wannabe
Chorus
Hey Mr. Wannabe
You never had a hit record.
Even though you could.
You never got on the charts
But you could of been on top.
Hey Mr.Wannabe is all you'll ever be.
Because you never really tried.
Crying all the time.
Sitting on your laurels
Will get you nowhere fast
Wake up and smell the coffee.
To make a car run you have to turn the key.
V-2
If Johnny and Kris could sing.
He knew that he could too.
Keeping it all locked inside
Has done him no World of good.
But what do you expect from a wannabe
Chorus
Hey Mr. Wannabe
You never had a hit record.
Even though you could.
You never got on the charts
But you could of been on top.
Hey Mr.Wannabe is all you'll ever be.
Because you never really tried.
Crying all the time.
Sitting on your laurels
Will get you nowhere fast
Hey Mr. Wannabe
Wake up and smell the coffee.
To make a car run
You have to turn the key.
V-3
If Waylon can sell records.
He knew that he could too.
He thought that he could reach Heaven.
If only he had a chance.
Hey Mr. Wannabe that's all you will ever be
Bridge.
Hey Mr. Wannabe
Looking for a break.
Sitting on your laurels.
Will get you nowhere fast
Hey Mr. wannabe
You sit alone like me.
Only you can make it happen
But you choose to remain
A Mr.Wannabe oh oh so sad.
Mr.Wannabe looking for a break
You sit alone drinking down the blue
You remind me so much of me
Chorus:
Hey Mr. Wannabe
You never had a hit record.
Even though you could.
You never got on the charts
But you could of been on top.
Hey Mr.Wannabe is all you'll ever be.
Because you never really tried.
Crying all the time.
Sitting on your laurels
Will get you nowhere fast
Hey Mr. Wannabe
Wake up and smell the coffeee.
To make a car run
You have to turn the key.
Hey Mr. Wannabe
You are looking so sad
Sad Sad Mr. Wannabe
Crying in his beer.
Drinking down the blue
Sad sad sad Mr.Wannabe
You remind me so much of me
