Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
I am a dull and simple lad
Ich bin ein schlichter und einfacher Bursche
Cannot tell water from champagne
Kann Wasser nicht von Champagner unterscheiden
And I have never met the Queen
Und ich habe die Königin nie getroffen
And I wish I could have all that he has got (Hey!)
Und ich wünschte, ich hätte all das, was er hat (Hey!)
And I wish I could be like David Watts
Und ich wünschte, ich könnte wie David Watts sein
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
And when I lie on my pillow at night
Und wenn ich nachts auf meinem Kissen liege
I dream I could fight like David Watts
Träume ich, ich könnte wie David Watts kämpfen
Lead the school team to victory
Die Schulmannschaft zum Sieg führen
And take my exams and pass the lot
Und meine Prüfungen ablegen und alle bestehen
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wünschte, ich könnte sein) Wünschte, ich könnte wie David Watts sein
(Wish I could be) Wish I could be like David Watts
(Wünschte, ich könnte sein) Wünschte, ich könnte wie David Watts sein
(Wish I could be) Conduct my life like David Watts
(Wünschte, ich könnte sein) Mein Leben wie David Watts führen
(Wish I could be) I wish I could be like David Watts
(Wünschte, ich könnte sein) Ich wünschte, ich könnte wie David Watts sein
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
He is the head boy at the school
Er ist der Schulsprecher
He is the captain of the team
Er ist der Kapitän der Mannschaft
He is so gay and fancy free
Er ist so schwul und unbekümmert
And I wish all his money belonged to me (Hey!)
Und ich wünschte, all sein Geld gehörte mir (Hey!)
And I wish I could be like David Watts
Und ich wünschte, ich könnte wie David Watts sein
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
And all the girls in the neighbourhood
Und alle Mädchen in der Nachbarschaft
Try to go out with David Watts
Versuchen, mit David Watts auszugehen
They try their best but can't succeed
Sie geben ihr Bestes, aber es gelingt ihnen nicht
For he is of pure and noble breed
Denn er ist von reiner und edler Abstammung
Wish I could be like
Wünschte, ich könnte sein wie
Wish I could be like
Wünschte, ich könnte sein wie
Wish I could be like
Wünschte, ich könnte sein wie
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
(Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa)
