I Don't Wanna Be Like You Lyrics

Alright, oh yeah, alrightHeaven knows
Heaven knows I tried
To be like you
To be a part of the tribeI'd rather leave it all behind
But that's alright
I'm not your average type
No Mr. Clean, hey, I wanna be meCan'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 becauseI 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 youI'm hog-tied n' dirty
I'm tough and mean
Keep your Wall Street slickers
And the American dreamYou'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 aroundDon'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 becauseI 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 youThe 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 thatI don't wanna be like you
I don't wanna be like you, I know
If the oceans turn to desert
Hell can turn to ice
But I still don't wanna be like youI 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!
