Wouldn't it be cool
If it was our job to
Write music for a living
You could come over every afternoon
We could record some songs
And have Eric sing along
Only stopping for dinner
Dinner at Mary Ann's
But I'd never wanna sell out
Sell out to you
Sell out to you
No I'd never wanna sell out
Sell out to you
We could invite our friends
Over for a jam
We could listen to Jimmy
Some clarity for our lives
Our pride would wait outside
Maybe it waits all night
But we've got no plans for tomorrow
Except to do it all again
But I'd never wanna sell out
Sell out to you
Sell out to you
No I'd never wanna sell out
Sell out to you
And maybe then you'd see
Just what you mean to me
You know our lives would be so free
And nothing would get us down
