[00:00.00]By RentAnAdviser.com
[00:05.90]Sha la, la, la, la, la, la
[00:09.60]Oh
[00:11.00]Uh, huh
[00:14.30]I was down at the New Amsterdam
[00:18.10]Starin' at this yellow-haired girl
[00:20.40]Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation
[00:23.80]With a black-haired flamenco dancer
[00:27.20]You know, she dances while his father plays guitar
[00:31.80]She's suddenly beautiful, we all want something beautiful
[00:38.20]Man, I wish I was beautiful
[00:40.70]So come dance this silence down through the mornin'
[00:45.70]Sha la, la, la, la, la, la, la
[00:48.40]Yeah
[00:51.80]Uh, huh
[00:53.00]Yeah
[00:55.30]Cut up, Maria
[00:58.40]Show me some of them Spanish dances
[01:02.10]Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
[01:08.90]Believe in me
[01:12.00]Help me believe in anything
[01:14.60]'Cause I, I wanna be someone who believes
[01:20.00]Yeah
[01:22.50]Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
[01:28.20]And we stare at the beautiful *****
[01:31.50]She's looking at you
[01:33.40]Ah, no, no, she is looking at me
[01:35.70]Smilin' in the bright lights
[01:39.30]Comin' through in stereo
[01:41.90]When everybody loves you
[01:46.10]You can never be lonely
[01:48.40]Well I'm a paint my picture
[01:52.90]Paint myself in blue, red, black and gray
[01:56.20]All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
[02:01.20]Yeah, well you know, gray is my favorite color
[02:05.20]I felt so symbolic yesterday
[02:09.80]If I knew Picasso
[02:12.30]I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
[02:16.80]Mr. Jones and me look into the future
[02:22.50]Yeah, we stare at the beautiful *****
[02:25.80]She's looking at you I don't think so, she's looking at me
[02:30.10]Standin' in the spotlight
[02:33.40]I bought myself a gray guitar
[02:36.10]When everybody loves me
[02:40.30]I will never be lonely
[02:45.50]I will never be lonely
[02:48.70]Said I'm never gonna be lonely
[02:57.40]I wanna be a lion
[03:00.40]Ah, everybody wanna pass as cats
[03:04.10]We all wanna be big, big stars
[03:06.70]Yeah, but we got different reasons for that
[03:11.10]Believe in me 'cause I don't believe in anything
[03:16.90]And I, I wanna be someone to believe
[03:21.00]To believe, to believe
[03:23.60]Yeah
[03:24.50]Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the Barrio
[03:30.20]Yeah, we stare at the beautiful *****
[03:33.70]She's perfect for you
[03:35.50]Man, there's got to be somebody for me
[03:38.00]I wanna be Bob Dylan
[03:40.50]Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
[03:44.60]When everybody love you
[03:47.30]Ah son, that's just about as funky as you can be
[03:51.70]Mr. Jones and me starin' at the video
[03:57.50]When I look at the television
[04:00.50]I wanna see me starin' right back at me
[04:05.00]We all wanna be big stars
[04:07.70]But we don't know why and we don't know how
[04:11.00]But when everybody loves me
[04:14.50]I wanna be just about as happy as I can be
[04:18.90]Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars
