Lyrics

I wanted to be a great Guitar Player
I wanted to be your all star hero
I wanted to be a deep sea diver
Searching for treasure down below

Why won’t you let me
Do what I need
It’s in my nature to succeed

I wanted to be Che Guevara
I wanted to be the one to save the planet
I wanted to be politically correct
And help get rid of evil Margaret

Why won’t you let me
Do what I need
It’s in my nature to succeed

I wanted to be with anyone else
I wanted to be on my own and single
I wanted to be a futuristic voyeur
And feel the joy and feel the tingle

Why won’t you let me
Do what I need
It’s in my nature to succeed

I wanted to be a great sports star
I wanted to be the one to score
I wanted to be held and acclaimed
By Swedish twins in bed until four

Why won’t you let me
Do what I need
It’s in my nature to succeed

I wanted to be the main dream weaver
I wanted to be the awesome lunch maker
I wanted to be so very very much
But ended up just being a mischief-maker

Why won’t you let me
Do what I need
It’s in my nature to succeed
