I won’t answer the phone
unless it is you who’s calling me baby
anyone else but you and I’m not home
there’s so much I should do
but I want to lie in bed daydreaming
painting my nails and starring out the window

and I feel like I am someone
I feel like I’ve done something good
just by doing nothing

I never wanted to be a rock star
I never wanted to rule the world
and if I did I can’t remember
‘cause tonight I just want to be you’re girl

the secret of life is wasting time
whoever said that is such a genius
working can waste a way your whole life
so I turn the music on
and sing to the song “I’m Only Sleeping”
dreaming that you are here by my side

and I feel like I am someone
I feel like I’ve done something good
just by doing nothing

I never wanted to be a rock star
I never wanted to rule the world
and if I did now I can’t remember
‘cause tonight I just want to be your girl

making my mark
building monuments to myself
‘cause baby, when I slow down and I spend time thinking of you
it’s better for my health

so I’m gonna just play hooky
I’m gonna take a personal day
I’ll get another job if I get fired

I never wanted to be a rock star
I never wanted to rule the world
and if i did now I can’t remember
‘cause tonight I just want to be your girl

I never wanted to be a hero
demanding that my voice be heard
and if I did now I can’t remember
‘cause tonight I just want to be your girl...
