WANNABE

Stars in cars
Sporty little Jag-u-ars
Splashing cash like water through their hands

Glamour and glitz
Bopping to the Ballroom Blitz
I got swept along with all the fans

It was cool on TV
And I thought I could be
In fur coats and Ferraris
All the women after me
But I was, and remain...
A wannabe

All the singers
Gold upon their fingers
Strutting round the stage like who knows what

How I bought the dream
I was seventeen
What could make my fantasy stop?

('Cause it was)
Cool on TV
And I thought I could be
In fur coats and Ferraris
All the women after me
But I was, and remain...
A wannabe

Top of the Pops and Ready, Steady, Go
Jukebox Jury and that Supersonic show
All put together in a box and stowed away
And there goes yesterday
And there goes yesterday…

('Cause it was)
Cool on TV
And I thought I could be
In fur coats and Ferraris
All the women after me
But I was, and remain...
A wannabe

If at first you don't succeed, try the 'ON' switch!
