Lyrics
[Verse 1] Dressing up when the world is Levi Strauss Dressing down when tuxedos fill the house Going out when the rest are coming home Coming home when the rest are going out [Pre-Chorus 1] And when I'm broke and really down (I'm down) Everybody's throwing tons around And when I finally get my pay (my pay) Everyone's in India or so they say [Chorus] I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be I want to be like everybody else Be like everybody else Gravity don't work on me I want to be like everybody else [Verse 2] Drink your milk, then your Coke, then your rye First you're born, then you live, then you die First you cry, then you sing, then you moan First you're wet, then you're dry, then you're bone [Pre-Chorus 2] It's such a one, two, three affair (affair) Where did I go wrong? I'm stuck out here I'm stuck, it's up to you (to you) Hold me so tight they'll think I'm you [Chorus] I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be I want to be like everybody else Be like everybody else Gravity don't work on me I want to be like everybody else [Bridge] I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be [Chorus] I want to be like everybody else I want to be like everybody else Gravity don't work on me I want to be like everybody else Like everybody else I want to be like everybody else Gravity don't work on me I want to be like everybody else Be like everybody else Be like everybody else
