(poole/martin/poole)



I wish i were you

I wish i could wear your shoes

Wish i could think from your brain

I wish i were you

Yes i do

I wish i were you



In seventies attire

You know the whole planet

And the whole planet knows you back

You flaunt your imperfections

You carry it off with a wave of confidence

The hair flicks

The aura spits

Out something sparkly

All this reflects a

Deliriously happy individual

Makes me sick to my stomach



Well i'm jealous

So quote me on that

I've got a temper

You're laid back

Do you feel safe with a woman who

Doesn't even know her politics

From her poloneck?



And you go with the flow

It fits you perfectly

As you make love on another

Lip-shaped settee

You're as cool as can be



Strange soul you are

I stand in wonder

You make your own rules

And use your own devices

You lay back

Easy to do

And i wish i were you
