CYNDI LAUPER LYRICS - It's Hard To Be Me

"It's Hard To Be Me"



You see me everywhere, in my underwear

You may wonder what I'm here to sell

But underneath my stare, I'm so naked there

There are secrets I'm dying to tell



It's Hard to be Me

Nobody knows what it's like to be

The envy of mediocrity

If you could see

All my depth and complexity

I'd think you'd agree

It's Hard to be Me; It's Hard to be Me



I am up here alone, on my glamorous throne

Want to thank all you people down there

I was once an unknown, like you but I've grown

I have so much I'm hoping to share



It's Hard to be Me

Nobody knows what it's like to be

The envy of mediocrity

If you could see

All my depth and complexity

I'd think you'd agree

It's Hard to be Me, It's Hard to be Me



I guess you think that it's hard for you

Walking 'round in your little shoes

You don't know how I've sacrificed

To live this life, to look so nice



It's Hard to be Me

Nobody knows what it's like to be

The envy of mediocrity

If you could see

All my depth and complexity

I'd think you'd agree

It's Hard to be Me, It's Hard to be Me



Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
