Letras

[Verse 1]
I am a dull and simple lad
Cannot tell water from champagne
And I have never met the Queen
And I wish I could have all he has got, oi
Wish I could be like David Watts
[Instrumental]
And when I lie on my pillow at night
I dream I could fight like David Watts
And lead the school team to victory
Take my exams and pass the lot
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Conduct my life like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
[Instrumental]
He is the head boy at the school
He is the captain of the team
He is so gay and fancy free
And I wish I could have all he has got, oi
Wish I could be like David Watts
[Instrumental]
And all the girls in the neighborhood
Try to go out with David Watts
They try their best, but can't succeed
'Cause he is of pure and noble breed
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
[Outro]
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
[Instrumental]
