Running through the motions I hide
When I close the door at night
Will I ever be the one you want
It's never quite what it seems
That mysterious mystique
Tell me I am just the one you want
The one you want
The one you want- yeah
Colored lights and front page papers
The smell of cigarettes and vapor
Did you hear the movies play tonight?
I wanna wear the coolest clothes
See a camera, strike a pose
My business is in everybody's nose
And they snort it like coke
They said I'm the one
Since I was sixteen
Could've been the next Springsteen
My drummer could've been James Dean
But we're just a couple kids in ripped jeans
Running through the motions I hide
When I close the door at night
Will I ever be the one you want
It's never quite what it seems
That mysterious mystique
Tell me I am just the one you want
The one you want-
The one you want- yeah
Misty stage in dim lit bars
Finally a place to play my guitar
And high hopes to get me far
Songs about love and love that I lost
I wanna wear the coolest clothes
See a camera, strike a pose
My business is in everybody's nose
And they snort it like coke
Fightin' off everyone
Like Ellen Ripley,
Hoping one day they'll see me
On their living room TV
When really all I want is to be happy
Running through the motions I hide
When I close the door at night
Will I ever be the one you want
It's never quite what it seems
That mysterious mystique
Tell me I am just the one you want
The one you want-
The one you want- yeah
Watching the lights fade away
What would my ten year old self say?
Oh man we had a real good run
Saved myself before I "join the twenty-seven club"
Running through the motions I hide
When I close the door at night
Will I ever be the one you want
It's never quite what it seems
That mysterious mystique
Tell me I am just the one you want
The one you want-
The one you want- yeah
The one you want
The one you want, yeah
Yeah-
