Mr Jones lyrics translation: COUNTING CROWS Mr Jones song texte and letras COUNTING CROWS Mr Jones tab, paroles and testo COUNTING CROWS Mr Jones Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
I was down at the New Amsterdam, staring at this yellow-haired girl Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation, with this black- haired, flamenco dancer She dances while his father plays guitar SheFFFFB4s suddenly beautiful, We all want something beautiful, Man I wish I was beautiful
So come dance this silence down through the morning, Sha la la la la la la la yeah, ooh, yeah Cut up, Maria! Show me some of them Spanish dances Pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones Believe in me Help me believe in anything Cause I want to be someone who believes
Yeah, Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales And we stare at the beatiful women "SheFFFFB4s looking at you. Ah, no, no, sheFFFFB4s looking at me." Smiling in the bright lights Coming through in stereo When everybody loves you you can never be lonely
I will paint my picture Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful Gray is my favorite color I felt so symbolic yesterday If I knew Picasso I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
Mr. Jones and me look into the future Stare at the beautiful women "SheFFFFB4s looking at you. Uh, I donFFFFB4t think so. SheFFFFB4s looking at me." Standing in the spotlight I bought myself a gray guitar When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely..I will never be lonely Said I'm never gonna be lonely
I want to be a lion Everybody wants to pass as cats We all want to be big big stars, but we got different reasons for that Believe in me because I donFFFFB4t believe in anything and I want to be someone to believe, to believe, to believe, Yeah
Mr. Jones and me stumbling through the barrio Yeah we stare at the beautiful women "SheFFFFB4s perfect for you, Man, thereFFFFB4s got to be somebody for me." I want to be Bob Dylan Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky When everybody loves you, son, thatFFFFB4s just about as funky as you can be
Mr. Jones and me staring at the video When I look at the television, I I want to see me staring right back at me We all want to be big stars, but we donFFFFB4t know why and we donFFFFB4t know how But when everybody loves me, IFFFFB4m going to be just about as happy as I can be Mr. Jones and me, weFFFFB4re gonna be big stars ....
