[Verse 1]

Well, I wonder what it's like to be a rainmaker

I wonder what it's like to know that I made the rain

I'd store it in boxes with little yellow tags on every one

And you can come and see them when I'm done

When I'm done


[Verse 2]

I wonder what it's like to be a superhero

I wonder where I'd go when I could fly around downtown, yeah

From some other planet, I get this funky high on a yellow sun

Boy, I bet my friends will all be stunned

They're stunned (Yeah, yeah)


[Chorus]

Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?

If I was someone else, would this all fall apart?

Strange, where were you when we started this gig?

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me


[Post-Chorus]

To you

And you

And me


[Verse 3]

Well, I wonder what it's like to be the head honcho

I wonder what I'd do if they all did just what I said (Just what I said)

Well, I'd shout out an order, "I think we're out of this, man, get me some"

Boy, don't make me wanna change my tone

My tone (Yeah, yeah)


[Chorus]

Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?

If I was someone else would this all fall apart?

Strange, where were you when we started this gig?

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me


[Bridge]

Please don't change, please don't break

Oh, the only thing that seems to work at all is you

Please don't change at all from me

To you, and you to me, yeah

(Yeah, yeah)


[Chorus]

Straight up, what did you hope to learn about here?

If I was someone else, would this all just fall apart?

Strange, where were you when we started this gig?

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me

I wish the real world would just stop hassling me


[Outro]

And you

And me
