15. Wannabe (3:36)
(One, two, one, two, three)
Woo-ooh
Woo-ooh
Woo-ooh
Woo-ooh

You ain't no rock-star
You think you're so hard
With all your face tats, leather jacket, black car
You ain't no tough bitch
You think you're hot shit
Girl, you're all caked up, painted like a gold brick

And you're playing around
Hitting all the right places
Wearing your smile
Making all the right faces
You ain't got me fooled
I can tell that you're faking, faking, faking, yeah

You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe
Someone just like me
But you'll never be, never be, never be, never be
This shit ain't for free
There can only be, only be, only be, only be
One one-of-a-kind
When it's down to the wire
No one here can deny
That I'm b-b-b-b-bona fide

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)
Bona fide
Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)
B-b-b-b-bona fide
Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)
Bona fide
Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

You ain't no badass
You like to talk trash
Think you're invincible, fisting all that hard cash
You ain't no big-shot
You're just a knock-off
You're just a well dressed, impressive imposter

And you're playing around
Hitting all the right places
Wearing your smile
Making all the right faces
You ain't got me fooled
I can tell that you're faking, faking, faking, yeah

You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe
Someone just like me (someone just like me)
But you'll never be, never be, never be, never be
This shit ain't for free (this shit ain't for free)
There can only be, only be, only be, only be
One one-of-a-kind (one one-of-a-kind)
When it's down to the wire
No one here can deny
That I'm b-b-b-b-bona fide

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)
Bona fide
Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)
B-b-b-b-bona fide
Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)
Bona fide (woah)
Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)
(Yeah)

You ain't no present tense
You think you're heaven-sent
You're just a juiced up puppet paying low rent
You ain't no answer
You ain't no saviour
You're just a good excuse for bad behaviour

Wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe
You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe
Someone just like me

Wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe
Someone just like me (someone just like me)
Never be, never be, never be, never be
This shit ain't for free (this shit ain't for free)
Only be, only be, only be, only be
One one-of-a-kind
When it's down to the wire
No one here can deny

You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe (woah)
You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe (woah)
You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe (woah)
The real thing
Wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe
