Be Myself Songtext
von Sheryl Crow

Saw my shrink today, he said, "Girl, I can′t help you"
I've been seeing you so long, but nothing has changed
You tried Adderall and alcohol, sadly, the fact remains
You′re terminally normal, I'm sorry to say

So I shaved my head, I changed my name
I gave my pills away

'Cause if I can′t be someone else
If I can′t be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Be myself

Hanging with the hipsters is a lot of hard work
How many selfies can you take before you look like a jerk?
I took an Uber to a juice bar to hear a new indie band play
They got ninety-nine million followers in only one day


Well, I snapped that pic, and I made the slip
I got into a stranger′s car
Well, the heels don't fit
I finally quit
And headed back to my favorite bar

′Cause if I can't be someone else
If I can′t be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Woo

Don't you wanna be your own girl?
Don′t you wanna be your own girl?
Don′t you wanna be your own girl?


If I can't be someone else
If I can′t be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else (Ow!)
If I can′t be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can′t be someone else
I might as well, might as well be myself
Be myself
Oh, If I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Be myself
Gonna be myself
Ooh
Oh, oh
