If I could be anyone for one day

I'd be a guy who gets his hair to stay

And I would walk around the mall

Be the coolest one of all i'd

Buy some girl clothes

Maybe I would pierce my own nose

And I could just be the way they all wish they could be

[Chorus]

I wish that I was emo so that I could have the tightest hair and jeans so

Maybe I would catch your eye I'd buy out ev'ry vintage store

If it would mean you would like me more

That's why I wish that I had red hair with some white

And maybe I could dye it blue-black in one night

Then I would tell you that you mean more than life itself

Because it couldn't come from someone else

That's why I wish that I was emo

Sharing jeans with you would be great

We could shop for hairspray and get ready for our first date.

And we could go to cafe coco and we could order lattes no foam

And we could just be the way they all wish they could be

[Chorus]

I wish that I was emo so that I could have the tightest hair and jeans so

Maybe I would catch your eye I'd buy out ev'ry vintage store

If it would mean you would like me more

That's why I wish that I had red hair with some white

And maybe I could dye it blue-black in one night

Then I would tell you that you mean more than life itself

Because it couldn't come from someone else

That's why I wish that I was emo.

I wish that I was emo.

If I could be any one for one day

I'd buy some girl clothes

If I could be anyone for one day

I'd pierce my own nose

If I could be any one for one day

I'd buy some girl clothes

If I could be anyone for one day

I'd pierce my own nose

And I could just be the way they all wish they could be

[Chorus]

I wish that I was emo so that I could have the tightest hair and jeans so

Maybe I would catch your eye I'd buy out ev'ry vintage store

If it would mean you would like me more

That's why I wish that I had red hair with some white

And maybe I could dye it blue-black in one night

Then I would tell you that you mean more than life itself

Because it couldn't come from someone else

That's why I wish that I was emo.
