Somebody Special Lyrics - Singles - Fish

She's got a photograph of David Bowie 

In a Victorian hand made frame 

Signed backstage by a roadie in his name 

She's got Hemingway in her bedside table 

And a pistol under a pillow beside her head 

The bullets round her neck 

She wants to wear suits 

A cocktail waitress smokes Gauloises Blondes 

She's been taking tips from tables for too long 

She drinks frozen Stolichnaya 

She likes powders from Peru 

She don't like no one to tell her what to do 

Chorus 

She wants to be somebody, be somebody, be somebody, Somebody special 

She wants to be somebody, be somebody, be somebody, Somebody special 

She wants to wear suits 

She's got a nasty reputation as a cruel dude 

She likes Japanese movies, she likes Chinese food 

She's got handmade patent leather shoes riding on her feet 

She knows the lifestyle that she wants and she's willing to compete 

Chorus 

She put her mind to the classroom but outside 

She learned more from giving head 

She gave her innocence to someone that she once considered a close friend 

She gave her hand to the quarterback on loan to the local football team 

He gave his world as security, his heart as deposit on the dream 

But, she wants to wear suits 

Chorus 

She's got a wedding ring 

That's Cartier as far as you can tell 

She threw it down the local wishing well 

She'd lost it in the kitchen sink 

Or in a desert motel room 

The insurance claim just couldn't come too soon 

She wants to be somebody, be somebody, be somebody, Somebody special 

She wants to be somebody, be somebody, be somebody, Somebody special 

She's somebody special 

Do you want to be somebody special 

Could you be somebody special 

Somebody special 

(Dick/Boult/Paton)
