Don't try to change me

She said that she wanted a generous man
Hardworking, outgoing, with family plans
Strong and reliable and sensitive
I told her that man didn't exist

So don't try to change the way I am
I know that I'm not perfect and I don't give a damn
Don't try to change me, I'm unique
Don't you try to change me, you won't succeed

She said I was selfish, that's how she began
Unsympathetic, that I don't understand
She told me I'm lazy, and that I live like a pig
She said I'm unfriendly, an unsociable freak

But don't try to change the way I am
I know that I'm not perfect and I don't give a damn
Don't try to change me, I'm unique
Don't you try to change me, you won't succeed

Why should I care what others think? What's the big deal?
Why do you care what they think of me? Why do you worry?

I told her she wasn't that much of a catch
Bad-tempered and moody, first she's happy then sad
I said she was jealous and so insecure
She insisted she wasn't, because she's stubborn too

So don't try to change the way I am
I know that I'm not perfect and I don't give a damn
Don't try to change me, I'm unique
Don't you try to change me, you won't succeed

Don't try to change the way I am
I know that I'm not perfect and I don't give a damn
Don't try to change me, I'm unique
Don't you try to change me, you won't succeed
