Song lyrics

Well I wonder what it's like to be a rainmaker

I wonder what it's like to know that I made the rain

I'd store it in boxes with little yellow tags on every one

You can come and see them when I'm ... done

When I'm done


I wonder what it's like to be a superhero

I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown, yeah

From some other planet, I'd get this funky high on a yellow sun

Boy, I bet my friends will all be ... stunned

They're stunned


Yeah!


Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?

If I was someone else would it all fall apart?

Strange, where were you when we started this gig?

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me


Do you?

Do you?

And me


Well I wonder what it's like to be the head honcho

I wonder what I'd do if they all did just what I said (just what I said)

Well I'd shout out an order "I think we're out of this, man, get me some

Boy, don't make me want to change my tone

My tone


Yeah!


Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?

If I was someone else would it all fall apart?

Strange, where were you when we started this gig?

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me


Please don't change

Please don't break

Well the only thing that seems to work at all is you

Please don't change at all

For me to you

And you to me, yeah


Yeah!


Straight up, what did you want to learn about here?

If I was someone else would this all just fall apart?

Strange, where were you when we started this gig?

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me


I wish the real world would just stop hassling me

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me


To you and me
