Wannabe - Intellectual

[Intro]

(One, two, one, two, three)

Woo-ooh

[Verse 1]

You ain't no rock-star

You think you're so hard

With all your face tats, leather jacket, black car

You ain't no tough bitch

You think you're hot shit

Girl, you're all caked up, painted like a gold brick

[Pre-Chorus]

And you're playing around

Hitting all the right places

Wearing your smile

Making all the right faces

You ain't got me fooled

I can tell that you're faking, faking, faking, yeah

[Chorus]

You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe

Someone just like me

But you'll never be, never be, never be, nevеr be

This shit ain't for free

There can only bе, only be, only be, only be

One one-of-a-kind

When it's down to the wire

No one here can deny

That I'm b-b-b-b-bona fide

[Post-Chorus]

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

Bona fide

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

B-b-b-b-bona fide

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

Bona fide

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

[Verse 2]

You ain't no badass

You like to talk trash

Think you're invincible, fisting all that hard cash

You ain't no big-shot

You're just a knock-off

You're just a well dressed, impressive imposter

[Pre-Chorus]

And you're playing around

Hitting all the right places

Wearing your smile

Making all the right faces

You ain't got me fooled

I can tell that you're faking, faking, faking, yeah

[Chorus]

You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe

Someone just like me (someone just like me)

But you'll never be, never be, never be, never be

This shit ain't for free (this shit ain't for free)

There can only be, only be, only be, only be

One one-of-a-kind (one one-of-a-kind)

When it's down to the wire

No one here can deny

That I'm b-b-b-b-bona fide

[Post-Chorus]

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

Bona fide

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

B-b-b-b-bona fide

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

Bona fide (woah)

Woo-ooh (wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe)

(Yeah)

[Bridge]

You ain't no present tense

You think you're heaven-sent

You're just a juiced up puppet paying low rent

You ain't no answer

You ain't no saviour

You're just a good excuse for bad behaviour

Wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe

You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe

Someone just like me

[Chorus]

Wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe

Someone just like me (someone just like me)

Never be, never be, never be, never be

This shit ain't for free (this shit ain't for free)

Only be, only be, only be, only be

One one-of-a-kind

When it's down to the wire

No one here can deny

[Outro]

You just wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe (woah)

The real thing

Wannabe, wannabe, wannabe, wannabe
