Well, I'm tired of being a fool
And my mind going from hot to cool
And trying to conform to other's ideas
And someone else's rules
And the life I live ain't mine
I'm supposed to feel that's fine
I didn't make the world I'm living in
But I ain't gonna toe the line
I'm tired of trying to be something I know ain't me
I'm tired of living up to what people expect me to be
You know that some people are different
Now ain't that a crying shame
Now wouldn't it be a real drag if we were all the same
And I'm not gonna try to please
Eyes that just don't see
If I get myself together
You'll have the blues not me
I'm tired of trying to be something I know ain't me
I'm tired of living up to what people expect me to be
You know that some people are different
Now ain't that a crying shame
Now wouldn't it be a real drag if we were all the same
And I'm not gonna try to please
Eyes that just don't see
If I get myself together
You'll have the blues not me
You'll have the blues not me
You'll have the blues not me
You'll have the blues not me ....
