Lyrics

I could be a tiger

A loser or a fighter

A man or mouse

You don't see me

I could be a wonder

An alien among you

But you won't know

Can't you see, can't you see

I stand in open sunlight

I scream and shout

I warn you don't turn your back on me

You look right through me

Like I'm some chameleon

Don't turn your back on me

I could be the thin man

Maybe a sumo wrestler

For all you know

For all you care

I could be a genius

Normal or just curious

Why don't you care

Hear me cry, hear me cry

I stand in open sunlight

I scream and shout

I warn you don't turn your back on me

You look right through me

Like I'm some chameleon

Don't turn your back on me
