Song lyrics

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 could come and see them when I'm done, when I'm done

I wonder what it's like to be a super hero
I wonder where I'd go if I could fly around downtown, yeah
From some other planet, I'd get this funky high, on the yellow sun
Well, 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 game?
I wish the real world, would just stop hasslin' me
And you and you and me

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
Well, I'd shout out an order, "I think we run 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 game?
I wish the real world, would just stop hasslin' me

Please don't change, please don't break
'Cuz 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

[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 game?
I wish the real world, would just stop hasslin' me

I wish the real world, would just stop hasslin' me,
I wish the real world, would just stop hasslin' me
And you, and me
