I Wish I Were Lyrics


Matthew Ebel I Wish I Were

[Verse 1]
I wish I were Jean-Luc Picard
I don't think it would be that hard
To sip earl grey and save the day
While boldly going through the stars

Or maybe I'd be Captain Mal
A shining six-gun as my pal
Sexy broke and full of jokes
Even as things have gone to hell, oh

[Chorus 1]
I wish I were
A starship captain
I wish I were

[Verse 2]
I wish that I could be James Bond
Dry martinis, cars, and blondes
A PPK, and sharp things to say
When I'm about to get it on

Or Harry Potter I could be
King of spells and sorcery
I'd have no equals, and my sequels
Would become an industry, oh

[Chorus 2]
I wish I were
A British icon
I wish I were

[Verse 3]
I wish that I were Doctor Jones
But I don't think I've got the stones
To find the grail, and I think I'd fail
At turning Nazis into bones

As Han Solo I would be
Baddest in the Galaxy
And I shot first, for what it's worth
'Cause I'm a scoundrel, yeah that's me, oh oh!

[Chorus 3]
I wish I were
Anything Harrison Ford's ever been
I wish I were

[Bridge]
Doo, doo, doo (Frodo Baggins)
Doo, doo, doo (Scott Pilgrim)
Doo, doo, doo (Clark Kent)
Doo, doo, doo (Wayne Campbell)
Doo, doo, doo (Buzz Lightyear)
Doo, doo, doo (Darth Vader)
Doo, doo, doo (Zaphod Beeblebrox)
Doo, doo, doo (Mufasa)

[Chorus 4]
I wish I were
Anyone but me
I wish I were
Someone you'd be glad to see
I wish I were
All your fantasies come true

I wish I were with you
