| "Mind Over Matter"
Be yourself all the time – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
If you’re strange, that’s just fine – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
Actin’ fake, that’s a waste of time – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
So be yourself, just let it shine – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
Yep, I’m kind of strange, been called weird names.
Not the same – never played the reindeer games.
Back in school, acting cool was the goal.
I never got the hang of it, though, so I was told.
You gotta watch who your time’s spent with
Cause fake, fair weather friendships end quick.
A real friend can deal with your quirks –
If it’s real, then it works even when you feel like a jerk.
Cause no one’s perfect, and life’s a circus.
It’s crazy, you might get nervous
And feel like your aim’s all wrong for the game.
That’s a shame – if we were all the same, that would be lame.
Some paintings don’t need a frame.
Color outside of the lines and rearrange.
Real friends are impressed when you be yourself
And don’t worry about the rest – you don’t need their help.
Be yourself all the time – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
If you’re strange, that’s just fine – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
Actin’ fake, that’s a waste of time – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
So be yourself, just let it shine – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
I’m MC Fireworks, the weirdo’s hero
Rock shows at eight years old, here it goes
My clothes only match to me.
Who cares? – I’m the way I have to be.
I get stares – some folks don’t understand.
It makes me feel strange, but on the other hand
It makes me feel special like nobody else
And I love who I am, so I’m proud of myself.
I had friends that didn’t act like friends
So I told ‘em goodbye, they came back again.
And looked me in the eyes and apologized.
Now we all feel better and so we all rise.
I’m a daughter but I’m kind of like the sun when I shine.
And I have fun when I rhyme.
So press rewind and keep my song rockin’
Cause I got my own style, like Pippi Longstockings.
Be yourself all the time – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
If you’re strange, that’s just fine – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
Actin’ fake, that’s a waste of time – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
So be yourself, just let it shine – who minds doesn’t matter and who matters doesn’t mind.
