This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
(Nice and smooth)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
I am a dull and simple lad
Cannot tell water from champagne
And I have never met the Queen
And I wish I could have all that he has got
And I wish I could be like David Watts
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
And when I lie on my pillow at night
I dream I could fight like David Watts
I'd lead the school team to victory
And take my exams and pass the lot
(Wish I could be)
Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be)
Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be)
Conduct my life like David Watts
(Wish I could be)
I wish I could be like David Watts
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
He is the head boy at the school
He is the captain of the team
He is so gay and fancy-free
And I wish all his money belonged to me
And I wish I could be like David Watts
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
And all the girls in the neighborhood
Try to go out with David Watts
They try their best but can't succeed
For he is of pure and noble breed
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like (Fa, fa, fa, fa)
Wish I could be like (Fa, fa, fa, fa)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I, wish I, wish I)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I, wish I, wish I)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I could be like)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I could be like)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
I am a dull and simple lad
Cannot tell water from champagne
And I have never met the Queen
And I wish I could have all that he has got
And I wish I could be like David Watts
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
And when I lie on my pillow at night
I dream I could fight like David Watts
I'd lead the school team to victory
And take my exams and pass the lot
(Wish I could be)
Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be)
Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be)
Conduct my life like David Watts
(Wish I could be)
I wish I could be like David Watts
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
He is the head boy at the school
He is the captain of the team
He is so gay and fancy-free
And I wish all his money belonged to me
And I wish I could be like David Watts
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
And all the girls in the neighborhood
Try to go out with David Watts
They try their best but can't succeed
For he is of pure and noble breed
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like (Fa, fa, fa, fa)
Wish I could be like (Fa, fa, fa, fa)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I, wish I, wish I)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I, wish I, wish I)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I could be like)
Fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa, fa (wish I could be like)

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Magical
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
Blue
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Blue” is a song about a love that is persisting in the discomfort of the person experiencing the emotion. Ed Sheeran reflects on love lost, and although he wishes his former partner find happiness, he cannot but admit his feelings are still very much there. He expresses the realization that he might never find another on this stringed instrumental by Aaron Dessner.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
I always thought that David Watts was some sort of role model to this guy. He seems to have alot of respect for him and seems to admire him an awful lot, "For he is of pure and noble breed" I also like the comparison between him and David Watts: "I am a dull and simple lad" I guess it could be about 'popular kids' at school, but i think its more intense than that, he dreams about being like him. I suppose you could also say that David Watts isn't real and he's just an imaginary person thats everything the guy in the song wants to be.
