counting crows - mr. jones - live version (vh1-storytellers) lyrics
so you wanna be a rock and roll star
well listen now to what i say
just get an electric guitar
and take some time
and learn how to play
just learn how to play
well i was down at the new amsterdam
just’a starin’ at this yellow haired girl
mr jones strikes up a conversation
with a black hair flamenco dancer
you know, she dances while his father plays guitar
she’s suddenly beautiful
and we all want something beautiful
and i wish i was beautiful la la la
aw, cut up maria! c’mon
show me some of them spanish dances
and p-ss me a bottle mr. jones
believe in me, c’mon
help me believe in anything
cause i wanna be someone who believes
mr jones and me
tell each other fairy tales
and we stare at the beautiful women
she’s looking at you no no she’s looking at me
standing in this bright light
comin’ through in stereo
when everybody loves you
you should never be lonely
well i wanna paint myself a picture
i wanna paint myself in blue and red and black and grey
all the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
yeah, you know grey it’s my favorite color
i just, get so confused everyday
but if i knew pic-sso
i would buy myself a grey guitar and play
mr jones and me
look into the future
we stare at all the beautiful women
she’s looking at you, i don’t think so, she’s looking at me
standing in this spot light
look at me, i bought myself this grey guitar
man, when everybody loves me
i hope i never get lonely
yeah, i wanna be a lion
i know, i know, everybody wants to p-ss as cats
we, we all wanna be big, big, big, big, big stars
yeah but then we get second thoughts about that
so believe in me, man, i dont believe in anything
and i wanna be someone to believe
you should not believe in me
cause, mr jones and me
we just went stumbling through the barrio
we stare at all the beautiful women
she’s perfect for you, there’s got to be someone for me
i wanna be bob dylan
mr jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
when everybody loves you
sometimes, that just about as f-cked up as you can be
well can’t you hear me cause i’m screamin’
but i did not go outside yesterday
oh, don’t wake me cause i was dreamin’
and i might just stay inside again today
mr. jones and me, we don’t see each other much anymore
