Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
And all the girls say I'm pretty fly (for a white guy).
Uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, cinco, seis.
You know it's kind of hard just to get along today.
Our subject isn't cool but he fakes it anyway.
He may not have a clue, and he may not have style,
But everything he lacks, well, he makes up in denial.
So don't debate, a player straight.
You know he really doesn't get it anyway.
He's gonna play the field, and keep it real.
For you no way, for you no way.
So if you don't rate, just overcompensate,
At least you'll know you can always go on Ricki Lake.
The world needs wannabes,
So hey, hey do that brand new thing.
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
And all the girls say I'm pretty fly (for a white guy).
He needs some cool tunes, not just any will suffice,
But they didn't have Ice Cube so he bought Vanilla Ice.
Now cruising in his Pinto he sees homies as he pass,
But if he looks twice they're gonna kick his lily ass.
So don't debate, a player straight.
You know he really doesn't get it anyway.

The world needs wannabes,
So hey, hey do that brand new thing.
Now he's getting a tattoo, yeah, he's gettin' ink done.
He asked for a "13" but they drew a "31."
Friends say he's trying too hard and he's not quite hip,
But in his own mind, he's the, he's the dopest trip.
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!
Give it to me baby, a-ha, a-ha!

The world needs wannabes,
The world loves wannabes.
So let's get some more wannabes.
And hey, hey do that brand new thing!

This time you're really dead
Once followed, but always led
You thought you'd rise above it all
It's all inside your head
All ripping it up in shreds
I know someday you're gonna fall
And I don't wanna say I told you so
But I told you so
Now you've lost control
And I don't wanna be the rise and fall
So gimme more or nothing at all
You're in an awful way
Sucked in by what you crave
They just can't wait to see you crawl
And you can only laugh
Give in to the other half
They're only tearing down your walls
They've come to see you rise and fall
They're only tearing down your walls
They've come to see you rise and fall
And I don't wanna say you've lost control
Once followed, but always led
You thought you'd rise above it all
It's all inside your head
All ripping it up in shreds
I know someday you're gonna fall
And I don't wanna say I told you so
But I told you so
Now you've lost control
And I don't wanna be the rise and fall
So gimme more or nothing at all
You're in an awful way
Sucked in by what you crave
They just can't wait to see you crawl
And you can only laugh
Give in to the other half
They're only tearing down your walls
They've come to see you rise and fall
They're only tearing down your walls
They've come to see you rise and fall
And I don't wanna say you've lost control

I stood and watched them as they fell off one by one
And everyone‘s so blind
They‘re not to help mankind
Reach into your bag of tricks and pull another one
You don‘t want to change the world
Like you say
You‘re in it for yourself
No one else
You‘re ready
Saving yourself
You‘re gonna change the world
You‘re ready
Saving yourself
You‘re gonna change the world
Now when the day is set they‘ll line up all the same
And those that need the most will never get or gain
The ones you call your friends
Are failing you again
Reach into your bag of tricks and make it go away
You don‘t want to change the world
Like you say
You‘re in it for yourself
No one else
You‘re ready
Saving yourself
You‘re gonna change the world
You‘re ready
Saving yourself
You‘re gonna change the world
And since you ain‘t what you say
Then just go away
Cause some don‘t lie
Some don‘t lie
Go on now they won‘t tell
Go on now and save yourself
