Don't Let Me Get Me




LYRICS
Never win first place, I don't support the team
I can't take direction, and my socks are never
clean
Teachers dated me, my parents hated me
I was always in a fight cuz I can't do nothin'
right

Everyday I fight a war against the mirror
I can't take the person starin' back at me
I'm a hazard to myself

Don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
Its bad when you annoy yourself
So irritating
Don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else

I wanna be somebody else, yeah

LA told me, "You'll be a pop star,
All you have to change is everything you are."
Tired of being compared to damn Britney Spears
She's so pretty, that just ain't me

Doctor, doctor won't you please prescribe
somethin
A day in the life of someone else?
Cuz I'm a hazard to myself

Don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
Its bad when you annoy yourself
So irritating
Don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else

Don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
Its bad when you annoy yourself
So irritating
Don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else

Doctor, doctor won't you please prescribe
somethin
A day in the life of someone else?
Don't let me get me

Don't let me get me
I'm my own worst enemy
Its bad when you annoy yourself
So irritating
Don't wanna be my friend no more
I wanna be somebody else


What are your opinions about P!nk as an artist?

In my opinion, I love the way Pink presents herself and the way she performers in her videos as well as been live on stage. I feel that i get a buzz from all her songs because I like to think that I can relate to her. She is an individual and loves to show that she's not like anything else.

What do you expect from her videos

In some videos there is half story telling, half performance but with the others its just a story with performaning as a character. For example...

1) Raise You Glass
2) So What
3) Funhouse

Who are the audience?

Teenagers, girls who can relate to the stories.

Narrative -  Story	Live performances
Their performance	Rebellious
Clean cut	Faster editing
Brighter lighting	More close – ups of the band/singer
Perfect hair, make- up and costume	Lyrics – more aggressive
