I wish i was a rich man, A genius or a leader The man that i wanna be Should i get a real job Start a real life have a future Is this what i'm meant to be But i'm a drifter With a pipe dream To live a full life This is life to me If i had a new car And a big house From a desk job Would this still be the real me I've got a torn mind between my dreams
And what this world says i need to be If i was a genius with a clear mind And a good heart Things would be so clear Give me more cash and some success Maybe then i'd be a real man With a real life and security To make me smile again Till the sun sets Then i'd be a rich man A dead man with a head stone To tell the world I was a real man.
