Open up your eyes take a look at me If the picture fits in your memory I've been dreamin by the rhythm like the beat of a heart And I won't stop until I start to stand out Some people settle for the typical thing Livin' all their lives waitin' in the wings It ain't a question of 'if', just a matter of time Before I move to the front of the line And once you're watchin' ev'ry move that I make Ya gotta believe that I got what it takes [Chorus] To stand out Above the crowd Even if I gotta shout out loud 'Til mine is the only face you see Gonna stand out 'til you notice me If the squeaky wheels always gettin' the grease I'm totally devoted to disturbin' the peace And I'll do it all again, when I get it done Until I become your number one No method to the madness and means of escape Gonna break every rule I'll bend them all out of shape
It ain't a question of 'how' just a matter of when You get the message that I'm tryin' to send I'm under a spell, I'm in over my head And you know I'm going all of the way, till the end To stand out Above the crowd Even if I gotta shout out loud 'Til mine is the only face you see Gonna stand out 'til you notice me, yeah If I could make you stop and take a look at me instead of just Walkin' by There's nothin' that I wouldn't do If it was gettin' you to notice I'm alive All I need is half a chance, a second thought, a second glance'll prove I got whatever it takes It's a piece of cake To stand out Above the crowd Even if I gotta shout out loud 'Til mine is the only face you see Gonna stand out Stand out, hey Stand out! (Yeah, yeah, yeah!) Stand out! (Hmph!) 'Til mine's the only face you see Gonna stand out 'Til you notice me
