[ALBIN] I am what I am
I am my own
Special creation
So come take a look
Give me the hook
Or the ovation
It's my world that I
Want to have
A little pride in
My world and it's
Not a place
I have to hide in
Life's not worth a damn
'Til you can say ''Hey World
I am what I am ''
I am what I am
I don't want praise
I don't want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it's noise
I think it's pretty
And so what
If I love each feather
And each spangle
Why not try to
See things from a
Diff'rent angle
Your life is a sham
'Til you can shout out loud
I am what I am
I am what I am
And what I am
Needs no excuses
I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace
Sometimes the deuces
There's one life
And there's no return
And no deposit;
One life
So it's time to open
Up your closet
Life's not worth a damn
'Til you can say ''Hey world
I am what I am ''
