I Wanna Be Somebody

You say you don't wanna run and hide

 A face that no-one knows

 And everyone ya meet, you're gonna show

 You're nobody's slave, nobody's chains are holdin' you

 You hold your fist up high

 And rule the zoo

 

 Oh, you just got to be

 Up high where the whole world's watchin me

 Cos I, I got the guts to be somebody

 To cry out

 

 I wanna be somebody

 Be somebody soon

 I wanna be somebody

 Be somebody too

 

 You say you don't wanna starve

 Or take the table crumbs that fall

 You don't wanna beg or plead at all

 You don't want no nine to five

 Your fingers to the bone

 You don't want the rock piles' bloody stones

 

 Oh, you just got to be

 Up high where the whole world's watchin me

 Cos I, I got the guts to be somebody

 To cry out

 

 I wanna be somebody

 Be somebody soon

 I wanna be somebody

 Be somebody too

 

 I want shiny cars and dirty money

 Lotsa rock and roll

 I will live in fame and die in flames

 I'm never gettin' old

 

 I wanna be somebody

 Be somebody soon

 I wanna be somebody

 Be somebody too

 

 I'm gonna be somebody

 I'm gonna be somebody
