Dog Day Songtext
von Christopher Jak

You wanna be king
You wanna be everything
You wanna be great
Just for the sake of the smiles
You wanna be me
But it′s not jealousy
Just got some things
That you wanna hide

You wanna be the meanest old man that a pretty boy can
The sweetest dream or some scream in the middle of the night
You wanna be Jimmy Dean cool
But you're a dancing fool
You want forever and all tonight

You wanna be more than an old man
When your dog day comes like you know that it will
And you wanna be in love with a beautiful lady
And touched by a beautiful child
You wanna be just loving yourself for a little while


You wanna slip on by
With your head up high
Be your own man
Except for one little girl who might understand
You wanna love her back
Keep your black books so very black
Hold her up in the palm of your hand

You wanna be more than an old man
When your dog day comes like you know that it will
And you wanna be in love with a beautiful lady
And touched by a beautiful child
You wanna be more than an old man
When your dog day comes, you know that it will
So just be loving yourself for a little while, oh

Oh, your brain is diverse but your heart is diluted
There′s no time for love if the pay's not included
You wanna be the devil, but your halo's not suiting
Besides baby, you′d rather fly

So just be more than an old man
When your dog day comes like you know that it will
And you wanna be in love with a beautiful lady
And touched by a beautiful child
You wanna be more than an old man
When your dog day comes, you know that it will
So just be loving yourself for a little while


Oh, just be loving yourself for a little while, oh
Just loving yourself now
Just, just, just for a little
