Being Me

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 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
