I am the one and only,
Oh yeah!
Call me, call me by my name or call me by number,
Just put me through,
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‘d know best,
I‘m not the same as all the rest,
Chorus:
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
(chorus)
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!
(chorus) - repeat to fade
