Wannabe Lyrics by Staind

Staind

2011

[Verse 1]
I'm sellin' records, what is it that you do?
Sittin' in your momma's basement with a Shih Tzu
Peanut butter on your dick, right hand goin' click
With your left hand, givin' you a rimjob

So now you wanna talk about me?
Whose name is on the marquee?
You hate everything that you can't be
I've heard enough, man, fuck

[Pre-Chorus]
You're just a solo, turncoat rockstar
Pussy, poser, popstar

[Chorus]
Because you're nothin' but a wannabe
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?

[Verse 2]
So number two, that's right, what is it you're rollin'
Now that your momma's Ford Focus got stolen?
But it don't matter, cause you got nowhere ta go
So back to the hatin', frantic masturbatin'

So now you wanna talk about me?
You know, the songs that you download for free?
You hate everything that you can't be
I've heard enough, man, fuck

[Pre-Chorus]
You're just a solo, turncoat, popstar
Pussy, poser, rockstar

[Chorus]
Because you're nothin' but a wannabe
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?

[Bridge]
So number two, that's right, what is it you're rollin'
Now that your momma's Ford Focus got stolen?
But it don't matter, cause you got nowhere ta go
So back to the hatin', frantic masturbatin'
So now you wanna talk about me?
So now you wanna talk about me?

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Because you're nothin' but a wannabe
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?

Nothing but a wannabe (instead of focusing on me)
It's so easy when you're faceless
Why don't you focus on your misery
Instead of focusing on me?

[Outro]
I'm sellin' records, what is it that you do?
Sittin' in your momma's basement
I'm sellin' records, what is it that you do?
I'm sellin' records
