Mezz

I wanna be the worlds best lover
I wanna be on every cover
I wanna be the flying man in the Cirque du Soliel
But I'm me, and that's all I'll ever be

I wanna be like Serpico, or a freedom fighter
Down in Mexico, a black man in the fifties south
See what fake white freedom was all about
I wanna `recon' in vietnam, shoot a ball like
Gary Payton, I wanna talk to Jesus Christ
A-bomb the extreme right
But i'm me, and that's all I'll ever be
And I see there are some things I don't need

If it was up to me, I'd be those things
And so much more
If it was up to me, I'd talk to God
And kick down every door

I really wanna save the planet
End all wars and destructive habits
I wanna raise hell with the c.d.c
See if all is being done about that fuckin disease
I wanna be like Randy Johnson
Play guitar like Mick Ronson
Wanna set my sights on art collections
Give homeless people a new direction
But I'm me, and that's all I'll ever be
And I see, there's some things I don't need

If it was up to me, I'd be those things
And so much more
If it was up to me, I'd talk to God
And kick down every door

If it was up to me
I'd break down everyone
Let the poor have it all
Ban all war, if you please
And end disease

If it was up to me, I'd be those things
And so much more
If it was up to me, I'd talk to God
And kick down every door

If it was up to me
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
If it was up to me
