Let me tell you a little story

of how I got my attitude

When I moved to Manhattan,

those bills and stay there

I had my own agenda, no one even really cared

and I played it cool

- x2

Yeah I played it cool

- x2, - x2

Verse 2

A couple years later,

I'm living in Paris, France

Hanging out with DJs,

following the latest fads

I was working so hard just to figure out

- x2

the clothes and the hair

I tried so hard not to show it,

- - x2

I walked with my nose in the air

Chorus

The french didn't want me around,

 they didn't like my groove

So I packed up my bass guitar

- x2, - x2

and moved to Hollywood
