I’m Different Lyrics by Randy Newman

Trouble In Paradise

1983

[Chorus]
I'm different and I don't care who knows it
Somethin' about me, it's not the same, yeah
I'm different and that's how it goes
Ain't gonna play your goddamn game

[Verse 1]
Got a different way of walkin'
I got a different kind of smile
I got a different way of talkin'
Drives the women kind of wild (Kind of wild)

[Chorus]
(He's different) And I don't care who knows it
(Somethin' about him) It's not the same, yeah
(He's different) And that's how it goes
(And he's not gonna play your gosh darn game)

[Bridge]
I ain't sayin' I'm better than you are
But maybe I am
I only know that when I look in the mirror
I like the man (We like the man)

[Chorus]
I'm different and I don't care who knows it
Somethin' about me is not the same, yeah
I'm different and that's how it goes
Ain't gonna play your goddamn game

[Verse 2]
When I walk down the street in the mornin'
Bluebirds are singin' in the tall oak tree
They sing a little song for the people
They sing a little song for me
(La la la, la la la, la la la la) Thanks, fellas!

[Chorus]
(He's different and he don't care who knows it
Somethin' about him, not the same
He's different and that's how it goes
And he's not gonna play your gosh darn game)
I'm/He's different and I/he don't care who knows it
Somethin' about me/him i snot the same, yeah
I'm/He's different and that's how it goes
Ain't gonna play no boss man's game
