Lyrics

In an imaginary world

every boy and every girl

They'd all get the same things

they'd all get the same things

A little dough, a lot of love

with a mom and dad to hug

They'd all get the same things, yeah

But now the world is real

and it don't matter how you feel

'Cause we don't get the same things

we don't get the same things

You gotta work to stay alive

forty hours from 9 to 5

We don't get the same things, no

But all my gangster friends

and all my skater friends

We all want the same thing

I'm saying we all want the same thing

Dj's in the clubs, Jesus freaks and thugs

We all want the same thing, yeah

And, I think about the way

ll the politicians say

They say they wanna change things

You know they say they wanna change things

But every year, they take some more

and I don't know what it's for

You know they never change things

But, if you want to make it stop

oh, first, you got to start

Making some big, old changes

doing some different things, yeah

Get up out your bed

you better think outside your head

And, you won't get the same things, no

But all my gangster friends

and all my skater friends

We all want the same thing

I'm saying we all want the same thing

Dj's in the clubs,

Jesus freaks, and thugs

We all want the same thing, yeah

All my ex-girlfriends,

and all their new boyfriends

They all want the same thing

I'm saying, they all want the same thing

From Wall Street to the hood

New York and Hollywood

We all want the same thing

This is a message to remind you

There's just one who coast love

But all my gangster friends

and all my skater friends

We all want the same thing

I'm saying we all want the same thing

Dj's in the clubs

Jesus freaks, and thugs

We all want the same thing, yeah

All my ex-girlfriends

and all their new boyfriends

They all want the same thing

I'm saying, they all want the same thing

From Wall Street to the hood

New York and Hollywood

We all want the same thing, yeah

We all want the same thing

We all want the same thing
