Lyrics:
Maybe if I was a statue you’d have someone to look up to
Wouldn’t that be wonderful
Wouldn’t that be nice
And maybe if you were a painter
You could paint yourself in circles
Baby give me purple eyes
Or any color that you like
Cause I could be better
I could be more for you
I could do better and I know you feel it too
I could find a clean slate
Or maybe try and change my tune
Or maybe I’d be better
If I found someone new
What if I was a computer
Would that mean something to you
Wouldn’t that be wonderful
Oh I’d always get it right
Maybe if you were mother cause you do remind me of her
You could tell me how to live my life
One rule at a time
Cause I could be better
I could be more for you
I could do better and I know you feel it too
I could find a clean slate
Or maybe try and change my tune
Or maybe I’d be better
If I found someone new
And I know all of the things you want me to be
But I won’t change into something I don’t believe
