I Wish I Was Him Lyrics

I know it sounds stupid when I say it out loud
Like I'm just jealous of his silver cloud
He looks so good he drinks diet Coke
He gets his magasines sent by air not boat

I wish I was him
He gets the girls at his feet
With all his cool friends
He gets his records for free
I wish I was him
He has no enemies
I wish I was him

He's got six different flannel shirts
Airwalks not thongs
He even understands the words to Pavement songs
He's got his new guitar toys
He likes Smudge and the Beastie Boys

I wish I was him
He gets the girls at his feet
With all his cool friends
He gets his records for free
I wish I was him
He has no enemies
I wish I was him

I feel much better now I've let it all out
He's got big biceps and a masculine shout
I´m not trying to sound like I'm trying to be mean
But he thinks he can be a girl better than me

I wish I was him
He gets the girls at his feet
With all his cool friends
He gets his records for free
I wish I was him
He has no enemies
I wish I was him

I wish I was him

this song is genius, she sings it so perfectly and with a hint of irony in her voice at the end, the last verse just sounds so beautifully whiney just like i

The band was Noise Addict. The song was written about how uber-cool Evan Dando is. The original line was "but he plays guitar much faster than me". And instead of magazines it's NMEs. Kathleen's also slowed the song down alot.

Ben still plays it at his shows. Love!
