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!

Amazing song, I love it. It's about not conforming to be something you're not. I mean, why do we try so damn hard to be something we're not, but don't try half as hard to be something that we actually want to be?

By the way, it's "to be put on YOUR shelf".

Also the opening, the woman addresses him as Mr Smith. I assumed that was cos Smith is the most common surname (in England at any rate) therefore shows that he is seen as average...

but my flatmate ponted out that smith is used in many things incl the matrix (never seen). Any alternative ideas?

To Me, this song is about him trying to win the affections of someone he likes. Saying hell be anything they want just aslong as they like him

Shallow yes... but FAB song :P

I hate it when people compare this to queen, it's a good song but Mika is not even close to the awesomeness of Freddy or Queen in general

this song actually has a really cool meaning

Mika wrote this when he wasnt getting signed and he wanted more than anything (natuarlly) to get a label. he is singing all the things the record labels told him to do (and not do) in this song. ironically, a year later he was signed because of this song.

i love mika

Have like any of you seen the effin video cuz it's like weird he's like hanging around with this little girls n stuff and I think he might be a little petaphilistic in that style of show and also a little homosexual in his dance moves and actions and gestures of clothing choice but i do appreciate the song choice. thank you

Mika is gay?

Anyways... he is trying to change who he is to be good enough for someone else, but it doesn't work. Stay who you are.

And by the way... he goes EXTREMELY high in this song.

This song is about accepting yourself and not letting anyone else try to change that. Mika wrote this song after a record company tried to change his style. So he wrote a song about it.

OMG; He has to be Freddy Mercury's love child! Lol.

When I first heard this song I thought it was like some newly discovered Queen song. Then I found out later it was Mika and I was shocked. It's very catchy, and I think it made the soundtrack for that Adam Sandler and Kevin James about them being gay.

Well what can i say this song is catchy, fun and cheerful it's got the whole shebang :P anyway I don't care what other people think but I think Mika is gay i mean for starters he sounds like a girl when he sings, i am a girl and i can't hit notes that high and believe me i can have an annoying voice :P anyway whatever sexualiity this mad man is i love him, he's awsome and i'd like to wish him all the best luck in recording an equally awsome album as his first :D

This song is so much fun. The lead singer is a freaky and miraculous reincarnation of Freddy Mercury. It is scary.

I don't really like it, but it's a catchy song, and he's obviously done well.
