Being Me Lyrics

by The Strange Familiar

I'm not a tough girl
Never been much of a rough girl
I don't like to be mean
Guess that's a Midwestern theme
Don't have a single tattoo
Always got straight A's in school
And yeah, I sing in the choir
Never made a good liar
And I've been turned down
By every bigwig in town
But I'm not one to quit
This story ain't over yet

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e79792-the_strange_familiar~being_me_lyrics.html ]
Oh, I'll never belt it like Janis Joplin
And I'll never kiss Katy Perry
I may never sing a duet with Gaga
And I'll never be as cool as The Black Keys
I can't be something I'm not
But I'm just fine
Being Me

I grew up listening to Vedder
And it don't get much Better, Man
I wish it could be
Nineteen - Ninety - Three
I'll never fly like a G6
I don't want to be too rich, be a billionaire
I guess I don't really care
'Bout being up in the club
I'd rather hang in a pub
Where everyone knows my name
I guess that's lame

Oh, I'll never belt it like Janis Joplin
And I'll never kiss Katy Perry
I may never sing a duet with Gaga
And you probably won't hear this song on Glee
I can't be something I'm not
But I'm just fine
Being Me

What happened to music?
What happened to meaning something more than
Money, sex and controversy?
I can't be something I'm not
But I'm just fine
Being Me
