Fools Like That

I wish that I could play the guitar,
So I could make a video playing guitar and looking cute
Just like everybody else
I wish that I could play the guitar,
So maybe you’d think differently of what you think of me now
And I wouldn’t be like everybody else

I wish I could have loved you when it was the right time,
‘Cause now I can’t, because you can’t
And if you could, I’d probably wouldn’t want it anyway
‘Cause just as marilyn said
“After you get what you want, you don’t want it”
You’re just like me, so we will never ever ever ever ever fit

But if you are alone tonight, as I know you are
Why don’t you call me just to chat?
‘Cause I’m alone too and you know I am
Why are we fools like that?

I wish that I could talk about books,
So I could talk about the books I read on the summer
Just like everybody else
But actually I dont read books,
And I dont know a way to explain why I don’t,
It’s a shame and I know,
I’m not like everybody else

I wish I didn’t use so much auto-tune
And I actually had a voice like karen carpenter
‘Cause she sounds so good
But baby that’s my truth,
And I know you don’t like me but I kinda like you
I kinda like you
