I wish I had one good reason why
I should stay
How'd I get myself
Into this place?

I wish had qualities like
Sympathy
Fidelity
Sobriety
Sincerity
Humility
Instead I got lunacy
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I wish I could fit myself in my pocket
And tie myself to a rocket
And send myself to outer space
I wish I had a different face
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I wish I had one good reason why
I should stay
How'd I get myself
Into this place?

I wish my life was a little less seedy
Why am I always so greedy?
Wish I looked just like Cheryl Tweedy
I know I never will
I know I never will
I wish my life was not so boring
Every weekend four to the flooring
Don't get me started on Monday morning
Get with the other girl
Get with the other girl

I wish I had one good reason why
I should stay
How'd I get myself
Into this place?

I wish I could apologize
Be dignified
Wish I could look you in the eye
And tell you that I never lie
And wish that I could stop the cries
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't wake me up today
Under my duvet's
Where I wanna stay
Don't wanna come out to play
Doesn't matter what you say anyway

I wish my life was a little less seedy
Why am I always so greedy?
Wish I looked just like Cheryl Tweedy
I know I never will
I know I never will
I wish my life was not so boring
Every weekend four to the flooring
Don't get me started on Monday morning
Get with the other girl
Get with the other girl

I wish I didn't smoke so many cigarettes
Another program on antiques on the TV set
Wish I had blond hair
Wish I had green eyes

So many things about myself that I despise
(I wish my life was a little less seedy)
So many things about my life that I despise
(I wish my life was a little less seedy)
So many things that I despise
(I wish my life was a little less seedy)
So many things that I despise

Helps that I was in this long, dark tunnel
Helps that I was in this long, dark tunnel
Helps that I was in this long, dark tunnel
Helps that I was in this long, dark tunnel

    General Comment:Uhh, im not sure but i think the part "Get with the other girl" is actually "Dont wake me up again"?
    Im not really sure though, it might me "Dont wake me up today" or something else.
    ;D

    General Comment:Okay, you guys must not have heard the regular version of this song. You've probably heard it on the mixtape cos that "felt that I was in a long, dark tunnel" and all the "31 seconds" sounds you hear throughout the last half of this song are actually from 'Valley of the Shadows', which is the song Cheryl Tweedy mixes into.

    And I always thought it was "fall to the flooring", meaning she passes out every weekend due to drinking too much?

    General Comment:first of all, these lyrics are wrong..

    and she has written because she is pissed off with cheryl and is using this song to mock her and put her to shame for calling Lily "a chick with a dick".
    look at her blog, how can you not know that already??

    we love it.. cheryl is a twat and we love lily.

    General Comment:no man. It's in the view of a typical teenage girl. She wouldn't want to LOOK like her. She hates her! She's trying to say- don't think that people. Because everyone wants their life to be perfect, like hers. Just be you =]
