REM - Narrator Lyrics
(berry/buck/mills/stipe)When I was watching tv back in 73A skinny old man sure appealed to meHis name by now, Im sure you knowThe man who played a starring role in jacques cousteauOh, iAnd ever since then Ive written the dudeDreaming of swimming around theCoral reefId even bought my camera and my scuba gearIf only jacques had called to stop a careerOh, i(chorus)I wanna be a narratorI wanna be a narrator (I wanna be a narrator)For the jacques cousteau showFor the jacques cousteau show (for the jacques cousteau show)Swimming under water with my microphoneId record noises in the aqua-zoneChasing down the killer whale thats eating our crewJust to bring the story facts back to youOh, i(repeat chorus)Ive written the networks, sent my picture tooDone everything I could possibly doIve given up trying to get through to himMaybe he knows I dont know how to swimOh, i(repeat chorus)
