Sheryl Crow – All I Wanna Do

scritto da admin

This ain’t no disco
It ain’t no country club either
This is L.A.

All I wanna do is
Have a little fun before I die
Says the man next to me
Out of nowhere

It’s apropos of nothing
He says his name is William
But I’m sure he’s Bill or Billy
Or Mac or Buddy

And he’s plain ugly to me
And I wonder if he’s ever had
A day of fun in his whole life

We are drinking beer
At noon on Tuesday
In the bar that faces
The giant car wash

The good people of the world
Are washing their cars
On their lunch breaks
Hosing and scrubbing
As best they can
In skirts and suits

And they drive their
Shiny Datsuns and Buicks
Back to the phone company,
Record store too
Well, they’re nothing like Billy and me

Cause all I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up
Over Santa Monica Boulevard

I like a good beer buzz
Early in the morning
And Billy likes to peel the labels
From his bottles of Bud

He shreds them on the bar
Then he lights every match
In an oversized pack
Letting each one burn

Down to his thick fingers
Before blowing and
Cursing them out
He’s watching the bottles of Bud
As they spin on the floor

And a happy couple enters the bar
Dangerously close to one another
The bartender looks up from his want ads

But all I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up
Over Santa Monica Boulevard

Otherwise, the bar is ours
The day and the night
And the car wash, too
The matches and the Buds
And the clean and dirty cars
The sun and the moon

But all I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling I’m not the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun
I got a feeling the party has just begun
All I wanna do is have some fun
I won’t tell you that you’e the only one
All I wanna do is have some fun
Until the sun comes up
Over Santa Monica Boulevard

Until the sun comes up
Over Santa Monica Boulevard
