E A Acted nice when she’s not nice B7 Well, I have some advice A ‘Cause it’s happened to me. Twice E Here’s my secret strategy A It always works because B7 The world doesn’t end A It just feels like it does
E A So raise your right finger B7 A And solemnly swear E A "Whatever they say about me B7 A I don’t care!" E I won’t twist in knots to join your game A I will say, "you make me mad." B7 And if you treat me bad A I’ll say “you’re bad” E And if I eat alone from this moment on A That’s just what I’ll do E ‘Cause I’d rather be me A I’d rather be me B7 A I’d rather be me E Than be with you E We’re supposed to all be ladies A And be nurturing and care B7 Is that really fair? A Boys get to fight, we have to share E Here’s the way that turns out A We always understand B7 How to slap someone down A With our underhand E A So here’s my right finger B7 A To how girls should behave E A 'Cause sometimes what’s meant to break you B7 A Makes you brave E So I will not act all innocent A I won’t fake apologize B7 Let’s just fight and then make up A Not tell these lies E Let’s call our damage even A Clean the slate till it's like new E It’s a new life for me A Where I’d rather be me B7 A I’d rather be me E Than be with you G# I'll say, "NO!" F# I’ll say, "knock it off, with your notes and your rules and your games." G# And those sycophants who follow you I’ll remember all their names C# And when they drag you down F# Like they inevitably do G# I will not laugh along with them B C# E And approve their palace coup, ‘cause that’s not me E I don’t need their good opinions A I have plenty of opinions B7 Everybody has opinions A But it doesn’t make them true E What’s true is being me A And I’d rather be me B7 A I’d rather be me E Than be with you. E So raise them high A ‘cause playing nice and shy B7 A Is insulting my IQ E A I'd Rather Be Me E I'd Rather Be Me A E I'd Rather Be Me than be with you! A I'd Rather Be Me E I'd Rather Be Me A E I'd Rather Be Me than be with you!
