Barry Louis Polisar - I'd Be Me lyrics

I wouldn't wanna be a movie star and get mobbed wherever I go I don't need to be on TV or hear my songs on the radio People always tell me one day I'll be a star But every star burns out one day even if they're popular Ah happiness, I've found the key If I could be somebody....I'd be me I don't ned no limousine; I don't need no private plane I'm happy being who I am, I would wanna be John Wayne Though I loved his role in "Stagecoach"; loved what he did and said It all sounds better coming from him--beside's he's dead I wouldn't be David Slavitt, though I really love his poems I wouldn't be Dr Shockley, I don't got the right chromosomes So if you wanna be happy--it's easy as ABC The best advice I can give you is: be me
