I Am What I Am Lyrics

Shirley Bassey – I Am What I Am Lyrics

I am what I am
I am my own special creation
So come take a look
Give me the hook or the ovation

It's my world that I want to have a little pride in
My world and it's not a place I have to hide in
Life's not worth a damn till you can say
Hey world I am what I am

I am what I am
I don't want praise
I don't want pity
I bang my own drum

Some think it's noise
I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each feather and each spangle
Why not try and see things from a different angle

Your life is a sham till you can say
Hey world I am what I am
I am what I am
And what I am needs no excuses

I deal my own deck
Sometimes the ace
Sometimes the deuces
It's my life and there's no return and no deposit

One life, so it's time to open up your closet
Life's not worth a damn till you can say
Hey world I am what I am
