Who do you want to be today? 
Who do you want to be? 
Who do you want to be today? 
Do you want to be just like someone on T.V.? 

Oh boredom is so terrible, it's like a dread disease 
Nothing could be worse 
than when there's nothing on T.V. 
I'd rather be a cowboy than to stare blank at the walls 
I've been reborn so many times 
I can't remember them all 
(And I say) 
 [bad word] 

Just like someone on T.V.! 

I think I'll be a teddy boy, I think I'll be a hunk 
I think I'll be a tough guy and I think I'll be a punk 
I might just be a fashion star 
All dressed in frilly rags 
Or perhaps I'll cross the other side 
and walk around in 
Drag! 
 [bad word] 

Just like somebody on T.V.! 

Do you like to be just like a rock 
in the middle of the sea 
Do you want to suffer by yourself 
in a pool of blissful misery 
Do you want to feel like a saint in artists' clothes 
With a rosary in your hand 
Do you wanna be crazy like Van Gogh like a 
stranger in a 
Strange, strange land 

Would you rather push the buttons 
And be feared by all humanity 
Or perhaps you'd like to be a bum 
Do you wanna be stupid, just like me 
 [bad word] 

Just like somebody on T.V.!
