Mr. Jones

Shalalala la la la Uh huh..

I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-

haired girl

Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with a black-haired

flamenco dancer

You know she dances while his father plays guitar

She's suddenly beautiful

We all want something beautiful

Man I wish I was beautiful

So come dance this silence down through the morning

Shalalala la la la la yeah.. uh huh yeah..

Cut up Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances

Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones

Believe in me

Help me believe in anything

Cause I want to be someone who believes

Yeah!

Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales

And we Stare at the beautiful women

"She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at

me."

Smiling in the bright lights

Coming through in stereo

When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely

Well Ima paint my picture

Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray

All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful

Yeah well you know Gray is my favorite color

I felt so symbolic yesterday

If I knew a Picasso

I would buy myself a gray guitar and play

Mr. Jones and me look into the future

Yeah we Stare at the beautiful women

"She's looking at you.

I don't think so. She's looking at me."

Standing in the spotlight

I bought myself a gray guitar

When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely

Ill never be lonely

cause im never gonna be lonely

I want to be a lion

Yeah!, Everybody wants to pass as cats

We all want to be big big stars,yeah but we got

different reasons for that

Believe in me cause I don't believe in anything

and I, I want to be someone to believe to believe to

believe yeah!

Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio

Yeah we stare at the beautiful women

"She's perfect for you, Man, there's got to be somebody

for me."

I want to be Bob Dylan

Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more

funky

When everybody loves you, ah son, that's just about as

funky as you can be

Mr. Jones and me staring at the video

When I look at the television, I want to see me staring

right back at me

We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why, and

we don't know how

But when everybody loves me, I want to be just about as

happy as can be

Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars..
