Lyrics
Spend my money
On the latest sport coat at the mall
The one in front that's on display
Got reservations
For a private table at the club
The one that everybody wants
But doesn't it all seem ordinary
And don't I want to be extraordinary
Why would I want to be just like you
So you could like me 'cause I'm just like you
I'm not going to try to be the same
Even if it makes me a little strange
So if I have to choose to join the crowd
I think I'd rather stand out
Take a girl home
The one that always gets the guys
But this night she'll end up with me
But doesn't it all seem ordinary
And don't I want to be extraordinary
Why would I want to be just like you
So you could like me 'cause I'm just like you
I'm not going to try to be the same
Even if it makes me a little strange
So if I have to choose to join the crowd
I think I'd rather stand out
