Number One

I want a high powered motorbike 

I want a million YouTube likes 

I want a ten pin bowling strike 

I want a droppable mic 

I don’t ever want food that’s beige 

I want my very own fan club page 

To play a set on the Pyramid stage 

I don’t wanna live in a cage 

I want patience and I want it now 

I want to slay the sacred cow 

I want peace but I don’t know how 

I don’t want a furrowed brow 

I want holidays in the sun 

I want to live to a hundred and one 

I want successes by the ton 

You know boys just wanna have fun 

I want to see the South of France 

I want to learn to salsa dance 

turn spirals in my yoga pants 

melt your heart with a single glance 

I wanna be your second to none 

Walk hand in hand till the day is done 

bringing you roses by the ton 

I wanna be your number one
