I Wish
Mr. Patron Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Turn on my T .V, once again,
Network invaded, bad news are everywhere, all I see,
War is ragin’, storms are blowin’,
The world is goin’ mad, I wanna be ,
Somewhere else, far away, somewhere beyond the stars
I wish I was….

Pas là, là, làp….Tap, tap, ta, la lap

Pas là là, làp, tap, tap… ta la la la
Pas là, là, làp….Tap, tap, ta, la lap
The man who lives, in an other world

The clock is ringin’, once again,
Another day begin, it’s all gonna be the same, all I see,
Hypocrisy, evilness, gotta smile even if I’m sad, I wanna be
Secret agent, super hero, someone everybody loves
I wish I was…

Pas là, là, làp….Tap, tap, ta, la lap
Pas là là, làp, tap, tap… ta la la la
Pas là, là, làp….Tap, tap, ta, la lap
The man who saves, the beauty in distress

The lonely rebel, who’s gonna drive too fast

The rock star you wanna be with, every night

Looking back on when I
Reflecting on my past

Was a little nappy headed boy
When I was young and carefree

Then my only worry
When my only concern

Was for Christmas what would be my toy
Was what I would receive for Christmas

Even though we sometimes
Despite the fact that occasionally

Would not get a thing
We wouldn't receive gifts

We were happy with the
We found joy in the

Joy the day would bring
Happiness that came with the day

Sneaking out the back door
Secretly leaving my home

To hang out with those hoodlum friends of mine yeah
To spend time with my rebellious friends

I wish those days could come back once more
I long for the days of my youth
