You know, she dances while his father plays guitar
When everybody loves me
Ah, no, no, she is looking at me
I was down at the New Amsterdam
Sha la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Yeah
When I look at the television
Standin' in the spotlight
She's perfect for you
Uh, huh
We all wanna be big stars
Smilin' in the bright lights
Cut up, Maria
I wanna be Bob Dylan
Yeah, but we got different reasons for that
Well I'm a paint my picture
Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
I will never be lonely
So come dance this silence down through the mornin'
I will never be lonely
She's suddenly beautiful, we all want something beautiful
All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
If I knew Picasso
Starin' at this yellow-haired girl
Ah son, that's just about as funky as you can be
Man, there's got to be somebody for me
She's looking at you
You can never be lonely
She's looking at you I don't think so, she's looking at me
Show me some of them Spanish dances
Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation
Yeah
Said I'm never gonna be lonely
But we don't know why and we don't know how
And we stare at the beautiful women
Comin' through in stereo
Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones
Yeah
Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the Barrio
Yeah
Believe in me
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
Man, I wish I was beautiful
Yeah, well you know, gray is my favorite color
Ah, everybody wanna pass as cats
Believe in me 'cause I don't believe in anything
But when everybody loves me
I wanna be just about as happy as I can be
When everybody loves you
When everybody love you
I wanna be a lion
'Cause I, I wanna be someone who believes
We all wanna be big, big stars
With a black-haired flamenco dancer
Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
To believe, to believe
I bought myself a gray guitar
Uh, huh
Mr. Jones and me starin' at the video
I wanna see me starin' right back at me
Help me believe in anything
And I, I wanna be someone to believe
Paint myself in blue, red, black and gray
Mr. Jones and me look into the future
Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
I felt so symbolic yesterday
