Lyrics

[00:00.00]] I wish that I could get up in the early morning time
[00:05.98] Things would fall out of the sky into my lap
[00:12.10] I wish I had the brain of a tyrannosaurus rex
[00:17.22] So that I wouldn't have to deal with all this crap
[00:23.51] I wish that I'd been born with skin that turned to golden brown
[00:28.63] While at the beach relaxing in the summer time
[00:34.69] I wish that I was good at football, baseball and lacrosse
[00:39.77] Darts and basketball, and poker, golf and chess
[00:46.56] I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me
[00:51.21] On a silver platter, like they did to you
[00:57.76] I'm sorry that I wasn't able to become
[01:02.48] The man you think I should aspire to
[01:17.08] I wish I had the genes of Edwardo Verastegui
[01:22.18] That I was effortlessly masculine as well
[01:28.37] I wish that confidence was all you could see in my eyes
[01:33.34] Like those interviews in locker rooms with talented sports guys
[01:39.83] I wish I had no self-awareness like the guys I know
[01:44.85] Float right through their lives without a thought
[01:51.07] And that I didn't give a shit what anybody thought of me
[01:56.14] That I was so relaxed you'd think that I was bored
[02:02.82] I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me
[02:07.48] On a silver platter, like they did to you
[02:14.07] I'm sorry that I wasn't able to become
[02:19.14] The man you think I should aspire to
[02:48.06] I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me
[02:52.66] On a silver platter, like they did to you
[02:59.24] I'm sorry that I wasn't able to become
[03:03.98] The man you think I should aspire to
[03:10.62] I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me
[03:15.18] On a silver platter, like they did to you
[03:21.87] I'm sorry that I wasn't able to become
[03:26.92] The man you think I should aspire to
[03:33.23] I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me
[03:37.92] On a silver platter, like they did to you
[03:44.49] I'm sorry that I wasn't able to become
[03:49.46] The man you think I should aspire to
[03:55.76] I'm sorry that they didn't hand it to me
[04:00.35] On a silver platter, like they did to you
[04:07.20] (Was that my other one?)(
