The Boo Radleys - Find The Way Out
 

Lyrics/Notes

     
 

 Wish I Was Skinny

Martin's notes: Inspired by the band Moose, who were friends of ours at the time, this was one of the tracks that I was unhappy with as a single. I always thought that we should have been a bit more adventurous with our singles. The flock of seagulls ending was played on my sister’s Casio VL Tone which was my keyboard of choice throughout the album.
Lyrics: Wishing I was skinny, wishing that the whole world knew my name. Wishing I was thrilling, that I would never be to blame. Wishing I was kissing a girl with lips smooth as pearl. Wishing I was pretty, wish that I could twist the world round my finger. Wishing I had money, wishing for the time to spend it all. Wish that I could wrap the world round my finger! But I would always love you. I guess that would never change.
