No Good At Being You

Hello, goodbye
And thanks for stopping by
Please close the door on your way out
So you don't see me cry

It's my time, time to shine
Hope I don't forget my lines
'Cause when the world is crashing down
The script says I'm just fine

"I'm good, how are you?"
"It's nice to see you too"
Why do this ritual we do
When everyone knows it's not true?

I envy you, the things you do
The social norms I wish I knew
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you

See, I never auditioned for the role
I was cast to play
But I can't show that I'm unprepared
Or I'll be their feast today

So smile and wave, don't misbehave
And one day you'll walk out fine
Take a deep breath in, and then begin
Just don't forget your lines

Sore thumb? No fun
We had our real good run
But now it seems our time is up
They saw behind the curtain

Now the world knows all of me
The things I wish I wouldn't be
Oh, I'm sorry I'm no good at being you (wah, wah, wah, wah)

Au revoir, my curtains closed
I bid adieu
And that's a wrap
Yodeling's so silly
