I AM THE ONE AND ONLY

I'll still be doing it the way I do it
And yet, you try to make me forget
Who I really am, don't tell me, I know best
I'm not the same as all the rest

I am the one and only
Nobody I'd rather be
I am the one and only
You can't take that away from me

I've been a player in the crowd scene
A flicker on the big screen
My soul embraces, one more in a million faces
High hopes and aspirations, ideas above my station
maybe but all this time I've tried to walk with dignity and pride



I can't wear this uniform without some compromises,
Because you'll find out that we come
In different shapes and sizes
No one can be myself like I can
For this job I'm the best man
And while this may be true, you are the one and only you!


I am the one and only
Nobody I'd rather be
I am the one and only
You can't take that away from me
