Here I am again Looking for salvation in my coffee cup Watching rats doing laps in their Gucci suits And wondering where they're coming from Everybody seems to blend into everybody else If they're trying to make a difference - Who can tell? I just gotta be myself Don't hold me Dont control me It's my party Its my life It's my time And I've made up my mind I'm not living inside the lines I refuse to be played Won't be a slave to conformity No, no, I won't be shaped into somebody's big idea Of what I'm supposed to be I've found the biggest part of living Is just showing up If you keep doin' what you're doing You keep gettin' what you've got It can't be enough Don't hold me Dont control me It's my party Its my life It's my time And I've made up my mind I'm not living inside - Living inside the lines Everybody seems to blend into everybody else I've never been the one to march in step I am who I am Don't hold me Dont control me It's my party Its my life It's my time And I've made up my mind I'm not living inside - Living inside the lines No, no, no, no
