Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Eskiboy, Mark Ronson

Puttin' this one in your record box

[Verse 2]

I take too long to answer telephones

I take too long to type my name and record messages

But my hand writing is excellent

In fact it's second to none, none

[Verse 3]

I just got in from somewhere really good

They offered me the part of Bono and a speaking role

With all the merchandise and sunglasses

I could need ever need, need

[Verse 4]

I drive round cities in a chariot

It get preferential treatment at the Marriott

But if the truth be told, I'm naked under all these clothes

[Verse 5]

I'll tell you what it is on my mind, whoa

I only want to be in your record collection, whoa, ah

I only want to be in your record collection, whoa, ah

And I'll do anything it takes just to get there

[Verse 6]

My brain is buzzing and the room is strange

Like that scene in Trading Places at the stock exchange

I made a million over night in eighty-seven

Now I'm living in my parking space, parking space

My teeth are bright and my hair is clean

I wear Paco Rabanne like I was Charlie Sheen

But in the rain we all look wet, and in the snow we all look cold

[Verse 7]

I'll tell you what it is on my mind, whoa

I only want to be in your record collection, whoa, ah

I only want to be in your record collection, whoa, ah

And I'll do anything it takes just to get there

[Verse 8]

Yo

Eskiboy, A-Listed (A-Listed)

[Verse 9]

Disgusted by all the flashness

I think I'm a don, they think I'm an actor but I catch this

My two needs are, a pillow and a mattress

Once I can fill up the space with a famous actress

Give me a mil', I'll do a DJ set

I pull spikey with the green like a cactus

Show off, ego's high

You can't match this chauvinistic pig

Money man tactics

[Verse 10]

I'm not as clever as I thought I was

It got pointed out to me as I was tying the knot

And all I want to know is how I got so far down, down

I'm not as lucky as I thought I was

My luck ran out the other day as I was crossing the road

Who would've thought a truck like that could cause so much

[Verse 11]

I'll tell you what it is on my mind, whoa

I only want to be in your record collection, whoa, ah

I only want to be in your record collection, whoa, ah

And I'll do anything it takes just to get there
