| Call me Call me by my name or Call me by number You put me through it 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 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 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 I am the one and only, I am the one and only Nobody I'd rather be I am the one and only, The one and only You can't take that away from me |
