I Don't Wanna Be Like You

Heaven knows

Heaven knows i tried

To be like you

To be a part of you tribe



I'd rather leave it all behind

But that's alright

I'm not your average type

No mr. clean - hey i wanna be me



Can't you see - i'm the exception to the rule

I know what i want

And i know i'm gonna get it

That is why - i'm the exception to the rule

Don't push me too far

The way i am is just because



I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be like you

The walls can be shaking

The earth could be quaking

I still don't wanna be like you



I'm hog-tied'n'dirty

I'm tough and mean



Keep your wall street slickers

And the american dream



You ('ve) done me over and over

You ('ve) tried to tie me down

Why don't you step out of the shadows

Dare to roll the dice

Let it roll - and don't you push me around



Can't you see - i'm the exception to the rule

I know what i want

And i know i'm gonna get it

That is why - i'm the exception to the rule

Don't push me too far

The way i am is just because

I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be like you - never ever !

The walls can be shaking

The earth could be quaking

But i still don't wanna be like you



The ordinary way of life ain't for me

I do what i want and i wanna be free

Never know, where i go or what i'm gonna do

Why can't you see - the only thing i know is that



I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be like you

If the oceans turn to desert

Hell can turn to ice

But i still don't wanna be like you



I don't wanna be like you

I don't wanna be like you - no way !

The walls can be shaking

The earth could be quaking

But i still don't wanna be like - you !
