We wanna be like you
Your life ain't so bad
Wouldn't it be so cool
If we had what you have?
The way you walk around
It's like you own the place
And everything you own
You throw it in our face
The grass on the other side seems more green
But open up your eyes it ain't what it seems
It's obseen
We wanna trade spaces with the faces on the tv screen
If you could actually open the doors
You'd find out their lives ain't better than yours
They got flaws
But we're forgetting who we are, blinded by the stars
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
Yes we do, Yes we do
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
Yes we do, Yes we do
We wanna be like you
We watch you everyday
Our world doesn't move
Til we hear what you say
We wanna be like you
With all your fame and wealth
Cause if we can't be you
We'll have to be ourselves
The grass on the other side seems more green
But open up your eyes it ain't what it seems
It's obseen
How we wanna trade spaces with the faces on the tv screen
But if you could actually open the doors
You'd find out their lives ain't better than yours
They got flaws
But we're forgetting who we are, blinded by the stars
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
Yes we do, Yes we do
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
We wanna be like you
Yes we do, Yes we do
