I am what I am I am my own special creation So come take a look Give me the hook or the ovation Its my world that I want to have a little pride in My world and its not a place I have to hide in Lifes not worth a damn till you can say Hey world I am what I am I am what I am I dont want praise I dont want pity I bang my own drum Some think its noise I think its pretty And so what if I love each feather and each gle Why not try and see things from a different angle Your life is a sham till you can say Hey world 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 Its my life and theres no return and no deposit One life, so its time to open up your closet Lifes not worth a damn till you can say Hey world I am what I am
