I am the one
who believes in all that you say
I am the one
who never wants to define herself
I am the one
who's parallel, upfront, behind
I am the one
paddling like crazy through the night

Refine, old time, colorblind
Big sign, do time, doesn't rhyme
A lot, too much, standing tall
And I'm crying in the valley:
"I shall never, ever fall!" and

People are people
and I feel so strong
People are people and I'm
going on

People are people
and I feel so strong
People are people and I'm
going on

I am the one
who stirs it up every time
I am the one
who never knows how close she is
I am the one
who'd rather be dead than confess
I am the one
trying to be good, wanting to be bad and so on

Excess, temptress, big mess
Phony, lonely, it's a test
Be still my heart, don't you fail
And I'm crying on the stage floor:
“I will always prevail!” and

People are people
and I feel so strong
People are people and I'm
going on

People are people
and I feel so strong
People are people and I'm
going on

I'm going on…
