I Don't Wanna Be Like You lyrics

Heaven knows

Heaven knows I tried

To be like you

To be a part of the 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's 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

But 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

Don't you see? I'm the exception to the rule

I know what I want and I know I'm gonna get it

That's 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 know what I want and I wanna be free

Never know, where I'm going 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
