The Jam - To Be Someone (Didn`t We Have A Nice Time) (BBC In Concert / Live At The Rainbow Theatre, London / 1979)

To be someone must be a wonderful thing
A famous footballer a rock singer
Or a big film star, yes I think I would like that
To be rich and have lots of fans
Have lots of girls to prove that I'm a man
And be No 1 and liked by everyone
Getting drugged up with my trendy friends
They really dig me and I dig them
And the bread I spend is like my fame it's Quickly diminished
And there's no more swimming in a guitar shaped Pool
No more reporters at my beck and call
No more cocaine it's only ground chalk
No more taxis now we'll have to walk
But didn't we have a nice time
Didn't we have a nice time
Oh wasn't it such a fine time
I realize I should have stuck to my guns
Instead shit out to be one of the bastard sons
And lose myself I know it was wrong but it's Cost me a lot
And there's no more drinking after the club shuts down
I'm out on me arse with the rest of the clowns
It's really frightening without a bodyguard
So I stay confined to my lonely room
To be someone must be a wonderful thing
A famous footballer a rock singer
Or a big film star, yes I think I would like that
To be rich and have lots of fans
Have lots of girls to prove that I'm a man
And be No 1 and liked by everyone
Getting drugged up with my trendy friends
They really dig me and I dig them
And the bread I spend is like my fame it's Quickly diminished
And there's no more swimming in a guitar shaped Pool
No more reporters at my beck and call
No more cocaine it's only ground chalk
No more taxis now we'll have to walk
But didn't we have a nice time
Didn't we have a nice time
Oh wasn't it such a fine time
I realize I should have stuck to my guns
Instead shit out to be one of the bastard sons
And lose myself I know it was wrong but it's Cost me a lot
And there's no more drinking after the club shuts down
I'm out on me arse with the rest of the clowns
It's really frightening without a bodyguard
So I stay confined to my lonely room
