Lyrics

[Intro]
I am the one and only
Oh, yeah
[Verse 1]
Call me, call me by my name
Or call me by my number
Put me through it
I'll still be doing it the way I do it
[PreChorus]
And yet you try to make me forget
Who I really am
Don't tell me I know best
I'm not the same as all the rest
[Chorus]
I am the one and only
Nobody I'd rather be
I am the one and only
You can't take that away from me
[Verse 2]
I've been a player in the crowd scene
A flicker on the big screen
My soul embraces
One more in a million faces
[PreChorus]
High hopes and aspirations
Ideas above my station, maybe
But all this time I've tried
To walk with dignity and pride
[Chorus]
I am the one and only
Nobody I'd rather be
I am the one and only
You can't take that away from me
[Bridge]
I can't wear this uniform
Without some compromises
Because you'll find out that we come
In different shapes and sizes
[Bridge]
No one can be myself like I can
For this job I'm the best man
And while this may be true
You are the one and only you
[Chorus]
I am the one and only
Nobody I'd rather be
I am the one and only
You can't take that away from me
[Outro]
I am the one and only (I am the one and only)
Nobody I'd rather be
I am the one and only (The one and lonely)
You can't take that away from me
