Icon |
If you try to be an icon |
Then the icon becomes you |
If you try to be a model |
It’ll catwalk over you |
If you try to walk in straight shoes |
Then these shoes will bend you too |
If you try to be a kid again |
The kid will kidnap you |
You know it’s true |
The guy you know, well that’s just you |
And there is nothing you can do |
Just like a door you can’t get through |
When there is no one left to fool |
Don’t go and drown in that old pool |
Don’t kid yourself |
So don’t try to be an icon |
Con the I inside of you |
That picture you’ve been painting doesn’t look a thing like you |
I’ll agree that it’s a nice try |
But when your paint is dry |
We’re all just little icons |
Super you and super I |
You know it’s true |
The guy you know, well that’s just you |
And there is nothing you can do |
Just like a door you can’t get through |
When there is no one left to fool |
Don’t go and drown in that old pool |
Don’t kid yourself |
I need someone to show me |
Just what I threw away |
I need a pretty angel to present it on a tray |
You never liked the icon |
Said «that guy looked pretty strange» |
But you never tried to change me and that’s how I’ve come to change |
You know it’s true |
The guy you know, well that’s just you |
And there is nothing you can do |
Just like a door you can’t get through |
When there is no one left to fool |
Don’t go and drown in that old pool |
Don’t kid yourself |
When there is no one left to fool |
Don’t go and drown in that old pool |
Don’t kid yourself |
