Verse 1:
MI
I've been obnoxious
I've been unconscious
I've been all kinds of things that are hard to spell
LA
I've been unruly
Speakin' truly
I've been so cool i couldn't hardly even stand myself
Verse 2:
MI
I've been a monster
Without a sponsor
I've been Dr. Jekill and Mr. Hyde
LA
I've been a goner
I've been a loner
And when my mixture was right
Hell,i'm a nice bunch of guys
Chorus
SI LA MI
I am what i am 'cause i ain't what i used to be
SI LA MI
'Cause it is what it is but it ain't what it used to be
Verse 3:
MI
I been a mover
I was a shaker
You had a girlfriend
I tried to snake her
LA
I've been mysterious
I've been delirious
I've been so weird it would have killed a normal man
Verse 4:
MI
I wanted money
I wanted power
I want a monument
Kind of like the Eiffel Tower
LA
I've been lost at sea
I've been lost in space
And when i fall in love
I fall all over the place
Chorus
Verse 5:
LA
And you can go on forever and make the same mystakes
SI
Or you can stand up on your hind legs and change your fate
LA
Go on and do until you finally see
SI
What it is that you was that you don't want to be
Verse 6:
MI
I was an outlaw
I was an in-law
I was a scapegoat
That was the last straw
LA
I hit the highway
Singin' my way
But it wound up sounding like you'll never walk alone
Verse 7:
MI
I got a story
Reflected glory
Is the way that i've been seein' for most of my life
LA
I heard the laughter
Up in the rafter
But i never ever thought that the joke was on me
