Lyrics
look around outside, ain't nothing to do but hang around, think about all the stupid things that i've done, i guess i ain't nothin' but a clown, if i had a wish, i swear i'd wish, i'd wish for just one thing, and i don't even like to think about all the things my wish'd bring, cuz i just wanna be james dean, i just wanna be james dean, i just wanna be james dean, for a day, i wanna be oversexed and underworked and look at me i'm such a jerk, and i just wanna be james dean, for a day, think about stories of the actors and the movies stars, sittin' here watchin' the old men drinkin' at the bar, i think about dean and all the things he should've tried, i think about dean and all the ways he could've died, yeah, died, and i wouldn't give a shit about anything cuz i'd be such a big movie star, and that don't really do me much good just cryin' at the bar, but i just wanna be james dean, i just wanna be james dean, i just wanna be james dean, for a day, see but i'm overworked and undersexed and look at me i'm such a wreck, and i just wanna be james dean, for a day, going crazy cuz i'm always all alone, going crazy no one calls me on the phone, i think about dean and i know dean he wouldn't care, if i was dean i know there'd be somebody there, yeah, there'd be somebody there, for me, yeah i think about all the really cool things i could do and say, then you go and tell me that you found out dean was gay. no, i don't wanna be james dean, i don't wanna be james dean, i don't wanna be james dean, anymore
