Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Never wanted to be no
Pop singer
Never wanted to write no
Pop songs
Never had no weird hair to get my songs over
Never wanted to hang out after the show
Pop singer
Of pop song
[Verse 2]
Never wanted to have my picture taken
Now who'd want to
Look into these eyes
Just want to make it real
Good bad or indifferent
That's the way that I live
And the way that I'll die
As a
Pop singer
That pop song
Pop singer
Of pop songs
[Verse 3]
Pop singer
[Verse 4]
Never wanted to be no
Pop singer
Never wanted write no
Pop songs
Never wanted to have a manager over for dinner
Never wanted to hang out after the show
[Verse 5]
Pop singer
Of pop songs
Pop singer
Of pop songs
Never wanted to be no
Pop singer
Pop songs
Pop singer
Never wanted to write no
Pop songs
