Lyrics

WISH I WAS MORE LIKE THAT

1. If I were a little more bold, if I were a little less afraid
A little less worried ?bout what people would say
I?d laugh a little louder, be a little quicker
With comebacks to lines men would throw my way
Maybe then I could go to bed at night
Content with my life as it was
Wish I could be happy where I was at
Wish I was more, more like that

2. If I were a little more blonde, if I were less mousy brown
A little more savvy ?bout the clubs around town
If I could dazzle with a smile, seduce with one look
All eyes on me, my feet still on the ground
Maybe then I would know true happiness
In the beautiful people?s world
I?d slink around life?s corners like a cat
If I was more, more like that

Bridge:
But no matter now many self-help books I might read
At the end of the day I?m just?little ol? me
Who gets jealous of people who seem to have what I believe I need

3. If I were a little more tough, if I were a little less weak
A little less sensitive to honest critique
I?d speak up more often, put ?em in their place
Draw the line, not turn the other cheek
Maybe then I could get some sleep at night
No unfinished business at all
Wish I could settle my scores in ten seconds flat
Wish I was more, more like that

Bridge out:
But no matter how many self-help books I might read
At the end of the day I?m just little ol? me
Wish I could be happy where I was at
I?d slink around life?s corners like a cat
I?d settle my scores in ten seconds flat
If I was more, more like that
If I was more like that, aha?..
