Mr Jones - Counting Crows LIVE _ Triple M

I was down at the New Amsterdam, staring at this yellow haired girl, Mr. John strikes up a conversation with a black haired flamenco dancer. She dances while her father plays guitar, suddenly beautiful, and everybody loves her. I wish I was beautiful. Maria, come on show me some of them Spanish dances and all. Come pass me a bottle, Mr. Jones. Believe in me, help me believe in anything, cause I wanna be someone who'll believe. Yeah, Mr. Jones and me, tell each other fairytales, staring at all the beautiful women. She's looking at you, I know. She's looking at me, standing in this bright light, coming through in stereo. When everybody loves me, I will never be lonely. I wanna paint myself a picture, paint myself in blue and red and black and grey. And all the beautiful colors are very, very, very meaningful. Yeah, you know grey, it's my favorite color. I get so confused every day, but if I knew Picasso, maybe I'd just buy myself a grey guitar and play. Mr. Jones and me, looking out in the distance, staring at all the beautiful women. Yeah, she's perfect for you, I don't think so. She's looking at me, standing in this bright light. I got myself a grey guitar, and when everybody loves me, I will never, never ever be lonely. I wanna be a lion, everybody wants to pass as cats. We wanna be big stars, yeah, get kinda screwed up about that. But believe in me, even though I don't believe in anything. But you know I just might be someone to believe, so come on, children, believe in me. Mr. Jones and me, staring through the video, staring at all the beautiful women. Man, she's perfect for you, but there's gotta be a girl for me. I don't wanna be Bob Dylan. Mr. Jones, I should say, is just a little more funky, man. When everybody loves you, son, I think it's just about as funky as you can be. Mr. Jones and me, staring at the video. When I look at my television, I wanna see me. She's staring right back at me. And we wanna be big stars, but we don't know what, and we don't know how. But when everybody loves me, I'll be just about as happy as I can be. Mr. Jones and me, we're gonna be big stars.
