Lyrics

I don't need a crown, I don't want a gown

I can't use all of this stuff

Beauty and grace may have their place

But I have had enough!

I wanna be me, I wanna be me

I wanna be the me you used to see

Sitting on a lily pad

That would make me very glad

I wanna be me, I wanna be me

I want to sigh when tiny bugs go by

And croak a little lullaby to each gnat and flea and fly

(croaks)

Oh, I wanna be me

Let me hop, hop, hop

Let me splish and splash

Let me romp around in a swamp

I'd spend every day just that way

Being a frog on a log in a bog

I wanna be me, I wanna be me

I'd say "Hurray!" for just a single day

Sitting underneath a tree being who I used to be

I wanna be me, I wanna be me

I wanna go right back to what I know

So hocus pocus, 1, 2, 3

Goodbye, princess, hello, me!

It's time I saw some slime (Is that a crime?)

Oh, I wanna be me (x2)

Oh, I wanna…

A princess is nice, but I pay any price

To go back to the me I knew

Oh, I wanna be me

I wanna be me (x2)
