kathleen hanna - i wish i was him

I know it sounds stupid when I say it out loud
Like I'm just jealous of his silver cloud
He looks so good, he drinks diet Coke
He gets his magazines sent by air not boat

I wish I was him
He gets the girls at his feet
With all his cool friends
He gets his records for free
I wish I was him
He has no enemies
I wish I was him

He's got six different flannel shirts
Airwalks not thongs
He even understands the words to Pavement songs
He's got his new guitar toys
He likes Smudge and the Beastie Boys

I wish I was him
He gets the girls at his feet
With all his cool friends
He gets his records for free
I wish I was him
He has no enemies
I wish I was him

I feel much better now I've let it all out
He's got big biceps and a masculine shout
I'm not trying to sound like i'm trying to be mean
But he thinks he can be a girl better than me

I wish I was him
He gets the girls at his feet
With all his cool friends
He gets his records for free
I wish I was him
He has no enemies
I wish I was him
I wish I was him

"He likes... the Beastie Boys" interestingly enough, isn't Kathleen Hanna married to one of the members of the Beastie Boys? ;)

[ToroQ3000]

Yeah right when I heard that line, I read that she was married to Adam, and giggled and thought "well that makes sense, but it's quite a coincidence!"

Thanks for posting <3. IDK why people look up videos just to talk shit. Losers.

@darrenwilsonV2 i dont effin see u doing any better.

[darrenwilsonV2]

I still say she can't sing and can't play. Jealous and talentless 90's pretender.

[pogoramone]

Yeah shes married to a Beastie Boy,shes covering a song that was written by Ben Lee who is now married to the Beastie Boy Adam H.'s Ex Ione Skye! Wow! I wonder if Ben Lee and Kathleen Hanna had something going on? That wuld be a great Jerry Springer episode!

@darrenwilsonV2 The fact that you so eloquently referred to her as "this bitch" makes me pretty positive that Kathleen wouldn't want your douchebag ass listening to her music either. So fuck right off.

Isn't this song by Ben Lee???

Awww I first saw this song performed live at the Metro in October 1994, and I was wondering..who the hell is this ugly little kid ? hahahah...Ben went on to become quite the star. Never been a big fan butt I have good memories of that gig. Noise Addict were supporting Jon Spencer Blues explosion and Beck. I got really baked afterwards. I'm not sure butt i think it was the first international gig at the recently opened Metro, which is now the best venue in Sydney. By far ! Forever !
