"I Wanna Be Like Me" lyrics

"I Wanna Be Like Me"

Ooh. Ooh

What if I wanna be the one who
Never looks like anybody?
What if I wanna be the one who
Goes her own way?
Would you still believe in someone like me?

What if I wanna be the one who
Doesn't belong here?
What if I wanna be the one who
Won't fit in?
Would you find a new way to make room for me?

What if I don't wanna be like you?
Not to make you cry
What if I don't wanna be like you?
Just because I was made to be exactly like me
What if I don't wanna be like you?
Not to tear you down
What if I don't wanna be like you?
Because I found I was made to be exactly like me
I wanna be like me

Ooh. Ooh

What if I wanna be the one who
Doesn't need to hide?
What if I wanna be the one who
Won't apologize?
I'm not the enemy (ooh)
Unless you want the truth to see

What if I wanna be the one who
You never understand?
Do you ever think you'd ever want to
Still try to hold my hand?
To get through to you
I'm still trying to

What if I don't wanna be like you?
Not to make you cry
What if I don't wanna be like you?
Just because I was made to be exactly like me
What if I don't wanna be like you?
Not to tear you down
What if I don't wanna be like you?
Because I found I was made to be exactly like me
I wanna be like me

Hey! Ooh-ah
Hey! Ooh-ah
Ooh. Ooh
Ooh. Ooh

What if I don't wanna be like you? (Ooh)
What if I don't wanna be like you? (Ooh)
What if I don't wanna be like you? (Ooh)
What if I don't wanna be like you? (Ooh)
What if I don't wanna be like you? (Ooh)
Not to tear you down (Ooh)
What if I don't wanna be like you? (Ooh)
Because I found I was made to be exactly like me (Ooh)
I wanna be like me
