Ann-Marita: Music

Wish I Was More Like That

(Ann-Marita)
Words and music by Ann-Marita Garsed
WISH I WAS MORE LIKE THAT

1. If I were a little more bold, if I were a little less afraid
A little less worried ‘bout what people would say
I’d laugh a little louder, be a little quicker
With comebacks to lines
men would throw my way
Maybe then I could go to bed at night
Content with my life as it was
Wish I could be happy where I was at
Wish I was more, more like that

2. If I were a little more blonde, if I were less mousy brown
A little more savvy ‘bout the clubs around town
If I could dazzle with a smile, seduce with one look
All eyes on me,
my feet still on the ground
Maybe then I would know true happiness
In the beautiful people’s world
I’d slink around life’s corners like a cat
If I was more, more like that

Bridge:
But no matter now many self-help books I might read
At the end of the day I’m just…little ol’ me
Who gets jealous of people who seem to have
what I believe I need

3. If I were a little more tough, if I were a little less weak
A little less sensitive to honest critique
I’d speak up more often, put ‘em in their place
Draw the line, not turn the other cheek
Maybe then I could get some sleep at night
No unfinished business at all
Wish I could settle my scores in ten seconds flat
Wish I was more, more like that

(Bridge out):
But no matter how many self-help books I might read
At the end of the day I’m just little ol’ me
Wish I could be happy where I was at
I’d slink around life’s corners like a cat
I’d settle my scores in ten seconds flat
If I was more, more like that
If I was more like that, aha…..
