Ringo Starr
"Scouse's Dream"
I SIT AND WATCH WHILE OTHERS SING AND DANCE,
BUT I KNOW SOME DAY I WILL HAVE MY CHANCE.
I'M DOWN TODAY, IT'S TRUE,
MY CHANCES HAVE BEEN FEW,
BUT I'M NOT DISCOURAGED 'CAUSE I KNOW WHAT I CAN DO.
I MAY BE A TINY MOUSE AND IN A CAGE,
BUT I KNOW I BELONG UPON THE STAGE.
AND SOME DAY I WILL BE
A PERSONALITY
AND THEN THE ONE I'M WATCHING ON THE TV WILL BE ME.
NOW PEOPLE TEND TO TREAT A MOUSE
WITH SIMPLE CONVERSATIONS,
BUT I AM LIKE NO MOUSE YOU'VE EVER SEEN.
SO IF YOU THINK OF ME THAT WAY,
THEN MAYBE I SHOULD MENTION,
I'M SCOUSE THE MOUSE AND I HAVE GOT A DREAM.
OOH!
SO LOOK OUT, WORLD, 'CAUSE HERE I COME,
IF YOU WANT SOMEONE SPECIAL, I'M THE ONE.
ALTHOUGH I MAY BE SMALL,
IT DOESN'T BOTHER ME AT ALL,
'CAUSE I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT SOME DAY I'LL BE TEN FEET TALL.
