Lyrics for Grace Kelly as interpreted by jonisofsparta

Grace Kelly Lyrics
Do I attract you?
Do I repulse you with my queasy smile?
Am I too dirty?
Am I too flirty?
Do I like what you like?

I could be wholesome
I could be loathsome
I guess Im a little bit shy
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you like me without making me try?

I try to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I try a little Freddie
Ive gone identity mad!

I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you walk out the door!

How can I help it
How can I help it
How can I help what you think?
Hello my baby
Hello my baby
Putting my life on the brink
Why dont yo like me
Why dont you like me
Why dont you like yourself?
Should I bend over?
Should I look older just to be put on the shelf?

I try to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I try a little Freddie
Ive gone identity mad!

I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you walk out the door!

Say what you want to satisfy yourself
But you only want what everybody else says you should want

I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you walk out the door!

Completely agree with the opinion above. It reminds me of a great TV show - The Pretender, lol. :D

From what i have heard, Mika wrote this song because he was annoyed that different record labels wanted him to sound to be more like the stereotypical pop style. Ironically, a year later it was after hearing this song that he was signed onto a record label.

Very catchy song :D

I think it's like a mixture of Queen and Scissor Sisters - definitely love it though! The Freddie reference definitely ups the Queen link.

I can def. see why people think it sounds like Queen- reminds me of their style a lot as well! I love the movie-esque parts in it (I can only guess they're samples of Grace Kelly movies?)

I think this is Mika is showing how he is different like grace kelly was different and he wants people to realise he is no streotype.

The similarities between MIKA and Queen or in particular Freddie Mercury are even hinted to in the lyrics above. In fact Queen even wrote a song called Death On Two Legs about being controlled by record companies. Grace Kelly is about exactly that and the changes singer/songwriters have to go under in order to satisfy record execs. Obviously MIKA has fought hard against this as this quirky little song so evidently proves.

Personally, I thought this was Robbie Williams when I first heard it. I almost back flipped, I thought he might have actually released something decent, then I heard it was this guy. Great song though! X
