[Verse 1] Wish I was born New York Wish I was born in LA Wish I was born into the royal family Wish that I was a boy Wish I could play the guitar Wish I could be anybody else [Chorus] And just go, and just go, and just go Wish I could be somebody else And just go, and just go, and just go, and just go [Verse 2] I wish I could drink more I wish I could drink less I wish I didn't hate all of my friends I wish I wasn't a fail I wish I wasn't so radical I wish I could live life staying at home I wish I could relate I wish I could write a song about me for a change I wish I liked it I wish I felt it I wish I was wrong
I wish I would get it right [Chorus] And just go, and just go, and just go Wish I could be somebody else And just go, and just go, and just go, and just go [Verse 3] Wish I could talk it out Wish I could make some sense Wish I could see the f**ing president I wish I wasn't dead to him I wish I was happy I wish I could wish it away [Chorus] And just go, and just go, and just go Wish I could be somebody else And just go, and just go, and just go Wish I could be somebody else And just go, and just go, and just go Wish I could be somebody else And just go, and just go, and just go
