No Good At Being You (Original Version)
Hello
Goodbye
And thanks for stopping by
Please close the door (On your way out)
So you don't see me cry
It's my time
Time to shine
Hope I don't forget my lines
Cause when the world is crashing down
The script says I'm just fine!
I'm good, how are you?
It's nice to see you, too
Why do this ritual we do?
When everyone knows it's not true?
I envy you
The things you do
The social norms I wish I knew
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you
See, I never auditioned for the role
I was cast to play
But I can't show that I'm unprepared
Or I'll be their feast today
So smile and wave
Don't misbehave
And one day you'll walk out fine
Leaves me right there
And then we can just
Don't forget your lines
Sore thumb, no fun!
We had a real good run
But now it seems our time is up
They saw behind the curtains
Now the world knows all of me
The things I wish I wouldn't be
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you
Oh, I wish I was good at being you
Goodbye
And thanks for stopping by
Please close the door (On your way out)
So you don't see me cry
It's my time
Time to shine
Hope I don't forget my lines
Cause when the world is crashing down
The script says I'm just fine!
I'm good, how are you?
It's nice to see you, too
Why do this ritual we do?
When everyone knows it's not true?
I envy you
The things you do
The social norms I wish I knew
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you
See, I never auditioned for the role
I was cast to play
But I can't show that I'm unprepared
Or I'll be their feast today
So smile and wave
Don't misbehave
And one day you'll walk out fine
Leaves me right there
And then we can just
Don't forget your lines
Sore thumb, no fun!
We had a real good run
But now it seems our time is up
They saw behind the curtains
Now the world knows all of me
The things I wish I wouldn't be
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you
Oh, I wish I was good at being you
