Whaaa!
Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be?
Who do you want to be today?
Do you want to be just like someone on TV?

Oh boredom is so terrible
It's like a dread disease
And nothing could be worse
Than when there's nothing on TV
I'd rather be a cowboy
Than to stare blank at the walls
I've been reborn so many times
I can't remember them all

And I say
Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be?
Who do you want to be today?
Do you want to be just like someone on TV?
Just like somebody on TV?

I think I'll be a teddy boy
I think I'll be a hunk
I think I'll be a tough guy
And I think I'll be a punk
I might just be a fashion star
All dressed in frilly rags
Or perhaps I'll cross the other side
And walk around in drag!

Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be?
Who do you want to be today?
Do you want to be just like someone on TV?
Just like somebody on TV

Oh yeah!

Do you like to live just like a rock
In the middle of the sea
Do you want to suffer by yourself
In a pool of blissful misery
Do you feel like a saint in artist's clothes
With a rosary in your hand
Do you wanna be crazy like Van Gogh
Like a stranger in a strange, strange land

Would you rather push the buttons
And be feared by all humanity
Or perhaps you'd like to be a bum
Do you wanna be stupid, just like me?

Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be?
Who do you want to be today?
Do you want to be just like someone on TV?
Just like somebody on TV?

Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be today?
Who do you want to be?

Who do you want to be!

Who do you want to be today?

I can't remember them all

And I say
Who do you want to be today?

Do you want to be just like someone on TV?
Huh, do ya?
Just like somebody on TV?

I think I'll be a teddy boy
I think I'll be a hunk
I think I'll be a tough guy
And I think I'll be a punk
I might just be a fashion star

*Ho ha?*

Oh yeah!

Would you like to live just like a rock
In the middle of the sea
Would you rather suffer by yourself
In a pool of blissful misery
Do you feel like a saint in honest clothes
With a rosary in your hand
Would you rather be crazy like Van Gogh
Like a stranger in a strange, strange land

Would you rather push the buttons
And be feared by all humanity
Or perhaps you'd like to be a bum
Do you wanna be stupid, just like them?

Who do you want to be today?
