Blunt Lyrics - Wild Strawberries

I don't want to be beautiful 

No one ever hears her speak 

I don't want to be a diplomat 

With a heart attack for peace 

All that I need is a fire escape 

All that I need is a stone 

Everything that starts out burning 

Ends up overgrown 

I don't want to be an astronaut 

I've flown higher on my own 

I don't want to be a movie star 

I don't need to be alone 

All that I need is a blunt excuse 

All that I need is a ruse 

Everything that starts off burning 

Ends up feeling used 

I don't want to be president 

There's some things I'd like to keep 

I don't want to be a nightingale 

I don't need to feel that cheap 

All that I need is an antidote 

All that I need is a muse 

Everything that starts off burning 

Ends up feeling used
