Let me tell you a little story of how I got my attitude
When I moved to Manhattan, I hadn't even finished school
I was working so hard just to pay those bills and stay there
I had my own agenda, no one even really cared

*                                      *
Time was running out, I had to make a move
*                                        
So I picked up the bass guitar and I played it cool

* *  / * *  /    /   
A couple of years later, I'm living in Paris, France
Hanging out with DJs, following the latest fads
I was working so hard just to figure out the clothes and the hair
Tried so hard not to show it, I walked with my nose in the air

*                                      *
The French didn't want me around, they didn't like my groove
*                                        
So I packed up my bass guitar and moved to Hollywood

               
Had I one last chance
                                    
It was all there waiting for me honey
            *

Let me tell you a little secret, i'll tell you a little story now (x4)

*                                      *
Time was running out, I had to make a move
*                                        
So I picked up the bass guitar and I played it cool 
*                                      *
The French didn't want me around, they didn't like my groove
*                                        
So I packed up my bass guitar and moved to Hollywood
