Dave Stewart - Mr. Jones

Shalalala la la la Uh huh..

I was down at the New Amsterdam staring at this yellow-
haired girl
Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation with a black-haired
flamenco dancer
She dances while his father plays guitar
She's suddenly beautiful

Oh oh

We all want something beautiful
Man I wish I was beautiful
Come dance this silence down through the morning
Shalalala la la la la yeah.. uh huh 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


Mr. Jones and me tell each other fairy tales
Stare at the beautiful women
"She's looking at you. Ah, no, no, she's looking at
me."
Smiling in the bright lights
Coming through in stereo
When everybody loves you, you can never be lonely

Well Ima paint my picture
Paint myself in blue and red and black and gray
All of the beautiful colors are very very meaningful
Yeah well you know Gray is my favorite color
I felt so symbolic yesterday
If I knew a Picasso
I would buy myself a gray guitar and play

Mr. Jones and me look into the future
Yeah we Stare at the beautiful women

"She's looking at you.
I don't think so. She's looking at me."
Standing in the spotlight
I bought myself a gray guitar
When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely

Ill never be lonely
'cause im never gonna be lonely


I want to be a lion
Yeah!, Everybody wants to pass as cats
We all want to be big big stars,yeah but we got
different reasons for that
Believe in me cause I don't believe in anything
and I, 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
"She's perfect for you, Man, there's 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, ah son, that's just about as
funky as you can be

Mr. Jones and me staring at the video
When I look at the television, I want to see me staring
right back at me
We all want to be big stars, but we don't know why, and
we don't know how
But when everybody loves me, I want to be just about as
happy as can be
Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars..
