Letra de My Simple Christmas Wish - Jason Graae
Letra de canci�n de My Simple Christmas Wish de Jason Graae lyrics
Ever since I was a baby I have had one dream in mind
And I hope and pray that maybe it will finally come true
It's a simple wish that everyone has had from time to time
So I know you'll understand me when I share my dream with you
I wanna be rich, famous and powerful
Step on all my enemies and never do a thing
I wanna be rich, famous and powerful
So all I have to do in life is sit around and sing
I don't wanna work, struggle or compromise
When I set a goal I wanna reach it right away
Cause paying your dues, that's just for other guys
As for me I want what I want and I want it all today
I don't wanna audition, I don't wanna take class
I wanna be discovered while I'm sitting on my ass
I should not have to struggle, I should not have to sweat
I tried that for ten minutes once and look, what did it get?
Monday nights at the Cinegrill for a freebie audience! Woo-hoo!
I'm still not rich, famous and powerful
David Hyde Pierce has it all and I can do what he can do
So why is he rich, famous and powerful?
While I'm still stuck here shlepping through my life like all of you
What does it take to be famous and powerful?
Bruce Vilanch, if you're listening, please tell me what to do
(Spoken) Who do I have to... No, I've tried that so many times
(Singing) What do I have to fake to be famous and powerful?
I've done everything I can and now the rest is up to you

I've tried being good; OK I've tried being nice
I even tried pretending I was listening once or twice
But the really big stars have made it without it
Is Nathan Lane nice? Well, I seriously doubt it
And he's rich
Everyone adores him
He's a bitch
It's obvious that I have gotten nowhere being sweet
Now I know I should be grateful for the blessings that I've got
Gerry Sternbach truly worships me
And starving I am not
And I know good friends and family and health count for a lot
But I have to admit all that doesn't mean shit
If I'm not rich, famous and powerful
Oh come on don't be so shocked; you know youu feel the same as I
If we were rich, famous, and powerful
We could take all those agents and casting directors
And tiny appartments and back tax collectors
Critics and casting calls, fucking rehersal halls
People who bore us and jobs in the chorus
(Spoken) Hold it, Gerry. I was never in the chorus. OK, once in 1979 at Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera, David, but that was just to get my Equity card, OK. So blow me.
(Singing) And kiss them all goodbye
For me! For me! For me! For me!
Damn it!
And I hope and pray that maybe it will finally come true
It's a simple wish that everyone has had from time to time
So I know you'll understand me when I share my dream with you
I wanna be rich, famous and powerful
Step on all my enemies and never do a thing
I wanna be rich, famous and powerful
So all I have to do in life is sit around and sing
I don't wanna work, struggle or compromise
When I set a goal I wanna reach it right away
Cause paying your dues, that's just for other guys
As for me I want what I want and I want it all today
I don't wanna audition, I don't wanna take class
I wanna be discovered while I'm sitting on my ass
I should not have to struggle, I should not have to sweat
