All I wanna do

“All I wanna do is have a little fun before I die,”

Says the man next to me out of nowhere

It’s apropos of nothing

He says his name’s William but I’m sure

He’s Bill or Billy or Mac or Buddy

And he’s plain ugly to me

And I wonder if he’s ever had a day of fun in his whole life

We are drinking beer at noon on Tuesday

In a bar that faces a giant

The good people of the world are washing their cars

On their lunch break, hosing and scrubbing

As best they can in skirts in suits

They drive their shiny Datsuns and     Buicks

Back to the phone company, the record store too

Well, they’re nothing like Billy and me, cause

All I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling I’m not the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling I’m not the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun

Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard

I like a good beer buzz early in the morning

And Billy likes to peel the labels

From his

bottles of Bud He shreds them on the bar

Then he lights every match in an oversized pack

Letting each one burn down to his thick fingers

And he’s watching the bottles of Bud as they spin on the floor

And a happy couple enters the bar

Dangerously close to one another

The bartender looks up from his want ads

All I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling I’m not the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling I’m not the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun

Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard

Otherwise the bar is ours,

The day and the night and the car wash too

The matches and the Buds and the clean and dirty cars

The sun and the moon but

All I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling I’m not the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun

I got a feeling the party has just begun

All I wanna do is have some fun

I want to tell you that you are the only one

All I wanna do is have some fun

Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard

Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard
