All I Wanna Do
Hit it!
This ain't no disco
It
ain't no country club either
This is LA!
"All I wanna do is have a little fun
before I die,"
Says the man next to me out of nowhere
It's
apropos of nothing
He says his name's William but I'm
sure
He's Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy
And he's plain ugly to
me
And I wonder if he's ever had a day of fun in his whole
life
We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday
In a bar that
faces a giant car wash
The good people of the world are washing
their cars
On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing
As best
they can in skirts in suits
They drive their shiny Datsuns and
Buicks
Back to the phone company, the record store too
Well,
they're nothing like Billy and me, cause
Chorus:
All I wanna do is have some
fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna do is
have some fun
I got a feeling I'm not the only one
All I wanna
do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica
Boulevard
I like a good beer buzz early in the
morning
And Billy likes to peel the labels
From his bottles of
Bud
He shreds them on the bar
Then he lights every match in an
oversized pack
Letting each one burn down to his thick
fingers
Before blowing and cursing them out
And he's watching
the bottles of Bud as they spin on the floor
And a happy couple
enters the bar
Dangerously close to one another
The bartender
looks up from his want ads
Chorus:
Otherwise the bar is ours,
The day
and the night and the car wash too
The matches and the Buds and
the clean and dirty cars
The sun and the moon but
Chorus:
Until the sun comes up over Santa
Monica Boulevard
Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica
Boulevard |
