Maybe Man Songtext
von AJR

Wish I was a stone, so I couldn′t feel
You'd yell in my face, it′d be no big deal
But I'd miss the way we make up and smile
Don't wanna be stone, I changed my mind

I wish I had eyes in the back of my head
Then I could see the places I′ve been
But then I would know that you′re talkin' shit
I don′t wanna know what my friends think

Wish I were my dog out on the lawn
I'd be so glad when I hear you come home
But if I were my dog, I wouldn′t live long
I'm sure gonna miss her when she′s gone

I wish I could act in a show on TV
'Cause then I could practice not bein' me
I′ll practice my cry, put in into my reel
But you won′t believe me when I cry for real


I wish that my brain would triple in size
I'd nail every joke, I′d win every fight
But I'd get too deep with that kinda mind
I don′t wanna know the point of life

In some other life I would be rich
I'd travel in style, I′d cover the bill
But couldn't complain 'bout anything small
Nobody′d feel bad for me at all

If I was cocaine or a bottle of Jack
I′d get invited to every frat
But when you get old and your good days are passed
You'll only want me when you′re sad

Wish I was a song, your favorite one
You'd follow the dance to me at your prom
I would be there when your baby is born
For two or three minutes, then I′m gone

I wish I was big, as big as my house
I'd sleep on the trees, I′d skip every crowd
But I wouldn't fit on my therapist's couch
God, I could really use him now


I wish I was God, I′d never trip up
And if I did, well, so fuckin′ what?
I could be cruel and break all your stuff
Yeah, I'd be loved no matter what

But if I was God, it′d get kinda weird
'Cause you would only say what I wanna hear
And then you would die, you′d love me to death
I never know who the hell I am

I wish I was me, whoever that is
I could just be and not give a shit
Hey, I'll be whatever makes you a fan
′Cause I don't know who the hell I am

(Am-am-am-am-am-am)
(Am-am-am-am-am-am)

One, two, pandemonium
One, two, pandemonium
Here I go again
One, two, pandemonium

Here I go again
One, two, pandemonium
One, two
Here I go again
