You look down to me
'Cause I'm apology
But you cannot see
Woman's wish is a wanna be

Then it comes to you
They wanted you
Wanted all to write
She is something you cannot tie

Don't follow me
Don't cover me
Just leave me be
(Wanna be)
Don't try to change
To something you ain't

Don't even try
Try to be me
Why don't you see the irony
Oh, you wanted to be me
But I don't wanna be

You wanna go away
But I can't be out today
I'll just be a runaway
Bounce around like a ricochet
I walk 100 miles
And watch the time fly

Don't need an alibi

Can't follow me
Can't comfort me
Can't wanna be
(Wanna be)
Don't try to change
To something you ain't

Don't even try
Try to be me
Why don't you see
The irony of you

Wanting to be me

Wanna be, wanna be, wanna be, wanna be
Wanna be!
Try to be me
Why don't you see the irony

Oh, you wanted to be me
Try to be me
Why don't you see
The irony
Oh, you wanted to be me
I don't wanna be
