Lyrics:

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.

I am a dull and simple lad
Can not tell water from champagne
And I have never met the queen
And I wish I could have all that he has got
And I wish I could be like David Watts.

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.

He is the head boy at the school
He is so gay and fancy free
And I wish all his money belonged to me
And I wish I could have all that he has got
And I wish I could be like David Watts.

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.

And when I lie on my pillow at night
I dream I could fight like David Watts
Lead the school team to victory
And take my exams and pass the lot.

Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be
I wish, I wish, I wish &

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.

And all the girls in the neighborhood
Try to go out with David Watts
They try their best but can't succeed
'Cause he is of pure and noble breed.

Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like
Wish I could be like.

And when I lie on my pillow at night
I dream I could fight like David Watts
Lead the school team to victory
And take my exams and pass the lot.

I wish I could be like David Watts
I wish I could be like David Watts
I wish I could be like David Watts
I wish I could be like David
Wish I could be
I wish, I wish, I wish &

Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa
Fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa-fa.
