Lyrics - Swingin' In The Key Of L
MY VERY OWN FRAME
by Jan Nigro © 1991 Janimation Music BMI What am I to do? People see that I am small,
But they don’t see past my size at all,
There’s much more to me than what they can see.
What am I to you?
Since I wear a larger size,
Must I care if I don’t please your eyes?
Why should I feel I’m not the ideal?
Who wrote the book on how we should look?
Maybe it’s time that we should re-write the book.
CHORUS:
We come in different shapes,
we come in different sizes,
No two are quite the same.
Why should I be told, I don’t fit in the mold?
Oh, I’m a work of art in my very own frame.
No one would say a tree should
look like another tree,
‘Cause it grows its own way naturally,
And I want to feel fine with what’s naturally mine.
So now the time has come, to accept
my shape and size,
Not to see myself through other’s eyes,
If those eyes can’t see the beauty in me.
Who wrote the book on how we should look?
Maybe it’s time that we should re-write the book.
CHORUS
If you’re large or if you’re small,
If you’re thin or if you’re tall,
Should it really matter at all?
Our individuality gives us variety,
Want to love the body that belongs to me!
CHORUS
