Well here we are now, we're playing a show

Seems like we've got such a long way to go

'cause we want to be big stars, don't you know

19 seems so old, 

when I see a little girl that I want to hold

she's so young, but that's alright

'cause I still might take her home with me tonight

and all the kids are jumping up and down

been so long since I've seen a rude boy in this town

'cause he traded in his strips for a Hawaiian shirt

he's got his new Doc Martin's to kick the dirt, well

I'm not old school (but I still wear my chucks)

Probably always will ('cause our band really sucks)

Want to make it big (is that so bad?)

Want to be Reel Big Fish



Wish I was Aaron, I'd take the stage

All the little girl's would be amazed

And the kids would listen to every word I say 

Wish I was Aaron (and I wish I was Scott)



Well Reel Big Fish you know they've got it made

Because they signed with the record company,

they're going to get paid

Well they mess up all the lyrics and they've got no style

I say they're going to get it right but it might take a while

So, don't touch that dial (I'm talking behind your back)

Well I love the band, they're a great bunch of guys

But looking at her brings tears to my eyes

Said I'm watching her shake,

she's going to give me a heart attack now, baby



Wish I was Aaron, I'd take the stage

All the little girl's would be amazed

And the kids would listen to every word I say 

Wish I was Aaron (and I wish I was Scott)



Promise I'll still sing

When we get Reel big

Won't forget our fans

When we're your favorite band

And I'd do anything that you want me to

Just give me all you're money, I'll sing for you

We'd sell out any day

It's the American way (It was like that when I got here)



Wish I was Aaron, I'd take the stage

All the little girl's would be amazed

And the kids would listen to every word I say 

Wish I was Aaron ( and I wish I was Scott)



I wish I was Aaron, he's wishes he was Scott

You know we wouldn't drink, and we wouldn't smoke pot

We'd just play our hearts out every single night

But if it doesn't happen soon, we're going to give up the fight
