[Verse 1]
Saw my shrink today, he said, "Girl, I can't help you"
I've been seeing you so long, but nothing has changed
You tried Adderall and alcohol, sadly the fact remains
You're terminally normal, I'm sorry to say

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So I shaved my head, I changed my name
I gave my pills away

[Chorus]
'Cause if I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Be myself

[Verse 2]
Hanging with the hipsters is a lot of hard work
How many selfies can you take before you look like a jerk?
I took an Uber to a juice bar to hear a new indie band play
They got ninety-nine million followers in only one day

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well, I snapped that pic, and I made the slip
I got into a stranger's car
Well, the heels don't fit
I finally quit
And I headed back to my favorite bar

[Chorus]
'Cause if I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Woo

[Bridge]
Don't you wanna be your own girl?
Don't you wanna be your own girl?
Don't you wanna be your own girl?
Oh, oh

[Chorus]
If I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else, ow!
If I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, if I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself
If I can't be someone else
If I can't be someone else
Oh, If I can't be someone else
I might as well be myself, myself
Be myself
Gonna be myself
Ooh
