[Intro]

Cmaj7 Abmaj7 Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Hey, this is radio station W S K E E
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
We're taking calls on the wish line
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Making your wacky wishes come true...
Hello?
[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Cmaj7 Abmaj7 Bmaj7
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
Abmaj7 Bmaj7
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
Gmaj7
And a six four Impala
[Verse 1]
---------------------
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I wish I was like six foot nine
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
So I can get with Leoshi 'Cause she don't
know me
But, yo, she's really fine
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
You know I see her all the time
Everywhere I go
Bmaj7
And even in my dreams
Gmaj7
I can scheme of ways to make her mine
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
'Cause I know she's livin' phat
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Her boyfriend's tall and he plays ball,
So how am I gonna compete with that?
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
'Cause when it comes to playing basketball
Bmaj7
I'm always last to be picked
Gmaj7
And in some cases never picked at all
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
So I just lean up on the wall
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Or sit up in the bleachers with the rest of the girls
Who came to watch their man ball
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
Dag, y'all! I never understood, black
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Why the jocks get the fly girls
And me, I get the hood rats
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I tell 'em, "Scat, skittle, scabobble"
Bmaj7
Got hit with a bottle
Gmaj7
And put in a hospital for talkin' that mess
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I confess it's a shame
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
When you livin' in a city that's the size of a box
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
And nobody knows yo' name Glad I
came, to my senses
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Like quick quick, got sick sick to my stomach
Cmaj7
Overcometh by thoughts
Abmaj7
Of me and her together, right?
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
So when I asked her out, she said I wasn't her type
[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six four Impala
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six four Impala
[Verse 2]
---------------------
Cmaj7 Abmaj7 Bmaj7
I wish I had a brand new car so far, I got this hatchback
Gmaj7
And everywhere I go, yo, I gets laughed at
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
And when I'm in my car I'm laid back
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
I got an eight track, and a spare tire in the backseat, but that's flat
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
And do you wanna know what's really wack?
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
See, I can't even get a date, so whatchu think of that?
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I heard that prom night is a bomb night
With a hood rat you can hold tight
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
But really though, I'm Figaro
Cmaj7
When in my car, I can't even get a hello
Abmaj7 Bmaj7
Well, so many people wanna cruise Crenshaw on Sunday
Gmaj7
One day I'ma have to get in my car and go
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
You know I take the one ten until the one o five
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Get off at Crenshaw, tell my homies, "Look alive!"
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
'Cause it's hard to survive
Bmaj7
When you're living in a concrete jungle
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
And these girls keep Passin' Me By
Abmaj7 Bmaj7
She looks fly, she looks fly
Gmaj7
Make me say, "my, my, my"
[Bridge]
---------------------
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I wish I was a little bit taller
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
I wish I was a baller
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
I wish I was a baller
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
I wish I was a baller
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I wish I was a little bit taller, y'all
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
I wish I was a baller
[Verse 3]
---------------------
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
Hey, I wish I had my way
Bmaj7
'Cause every day would be a Friday,
Gmaj7
And you could even speed on the highway
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
I would play ghetto games
Bmaj7
Name my kids ghetto names:
Gmaj7
Little Mookie, Big Al, Lorraine
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
Yo, you know that's on the real
Bmaj7
So if you're down on your luck
Gmaj7
Then you should know just how I feel
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
'Cause if you don't want me around
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
See, I go simple, I go easy, I go Greyhound
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
Hey, you, what's that sound?
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Everybody look what's goin' down
Cmaj7 Abmaj7
Ah, yes, ain't that fresh?
Bmaj7 Gmaj7
Everybody wants to get down like that
[Chorus (3)]
---------------------
Wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six four Impala
I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller
I wish I had a girl who looked good, I would call her
I wish I had a rabbit in a hat with a bat
And a six four Impala
[Outro]
