[00:17.05] Staring at this yellow-haired girl
[00:19.74] Mr. Jones strikes up a conversation
[00:23.13] With a black-haired flamenco dancer
[00:26.42] You know she dances while his father plays guitar
[00:31.11] She's suddenly beautiful
[00:33.26] And we all want something beautiful

[01:55.44] All of the beautiful colors are very, very meaningful
[02:00.59] Yeah, well, you know gray is my favorite color
[02:04.24] I felt so symbolic yesterday
[02:08.99] If I knew Picasso
[02:11.39] I would buy myself a gray guitar and play
[02:15.92] Mr. Jones and me
[02:19.06] Look into the future
[02:21.59] Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women
[02:24.50] She's looking at you
[02:26.75] I don't think so
[02:27.80] She's looking at me
[02:29.24] Standing in the spotlight
[02:32.14] I bought myself a gray guitar

[03:05.71] Yeah, but we got different reasons for that
[03:09.74] Believe in me
[03:12.39] 'Cause I don't believe in anything
[03:16.03] And I wanna be someone to believe, to believe, to believe
[03:22.77] Yeah
[03:23.55] Mr. Jones and me
[03:26.69] Stumbling through the barrio
[03:29.08] Yeah, we stare at the beautiful women

[03:34.58] Man, there's got to be somebody for me
[03:37.05] I wanna be Bob Dylan
[03:39.18] Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
[03:43.61] When everybody loves you, ah son
[03:47.51] That's just about as funky as you can be
[03:50.75] Mr. Jones and me
[03:54.01] Staring at the video
[03:56.41] When I look at the television, I want to see me
[04:01.66] Staring right back at me
[04:04.31] We all wanna be big stars
[04:06.95] But we don't know why, and we don't know how
[04:10.26] But when everybody loves me
[04:13.67] I wanna be just about as happy as I can be
[04:17.81] Mr. Jones and me
[04:22.01] We're gonna be big stars
