[Verse]
I Gwonder if you've Dever seen
The way the Emman in the lookout Chouse looks at me
Before he Gtakes out his teeth and Dasks me to sign the EmwallC  
And I Gsign his wall with a Dheel of bread
Dipped in Emgreen listerine
And then I Ckiss him on the head
And Gleave through the door in the Dfloor
As he starts to fall Emdown deCad
[Verse]
GI've got a pocket full of quarters and I'm Dheaded for the woods
I'm gonna Emplay miss pac man in a Cpuddle of mud
GI'm not gonna lose my Dshoes unless I start to EmcryC  
GAnd the man in the moon said I'm Dnot left-handed
And he Emdid a swan dive to the Cpromised land
GWhile you were lost in my DBob Hope diamond eyesEm  C  
[Verse]
GThere's scary topiary to the Dleft of the pool
EmThe trail to the right goes Cback to middle school
GI'm trying to read what the Dflashing red Emletters sayC  
GThey say lowest common destiny and Dso I run away
EmCause I can't make the grade when I'm Con display
GHere comes the Dman with the laminated plan
EmFor the Vince McMahon Cexpressway
[Chorus]
GWill you be me? will you be me?
DWear my clothes, Emdrink my coffee,
EmWrite my mommy, do my homework,
Feed my Cbabies, fight my Gcrazies
GWill you be me? will you be me?
DWear my clothes, Emdrink my coffee,
EmWrite my mommy, Cdo my homework,
Feed my babies, fight my GcraziesD  Em  C  G  D  C  G  D  Em  C  G  D  C  G  
[Verse]
GMy cat came back to Dlife, turned into a skunk
CKissed my dog and he got drunk
When I tried to Dpet her she turned into a beam of EmlightC  
GPam and Susie were there DI said EmI miss you
But Cthey didn't hear me
GThe ground started bouncing Dso I jumped up trying
To Emfeel like an angel flying
CWatch out for the power linesG  D  Em  
CUnless you wanna die

While you were lost in my Bob Hope diamond eyes
