I wanna talk to you
Last time we talked Mr Smith you reduced me to tears
I promise you that won't happen again
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 got to be wholesome
I could be loathsome
Guess I'm a little bit shy
Why don't you like me?
Why don't you like me without making me try?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly (mmmm)
But all her looks were too sad (ahhh ahhh)
So I tried a little Freddie (mmm)
I've 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 don't you like me?
Why don't you like me?
Why don't you walk out the door!
[Getting angry doesn't solve anything.]
How can I help ya
How can I help it
How can I help what you think?
Hello my baby
Hello my baby
Putting my life on my brink
Why don't you like me
Why don't you like me
Why don't you like yourself?
Should I bend over?
Should I look older just to be put on your shelf?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly (mmmm)
But all her looks were too sad (ahhh ahhh)
So I tried a little Freddie (mmm)
I've 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 don't you like me?
Why don't you like me?
Walk out the door!
Say what you want to satisfy yourself
Hey!
But you only want what everybody else says you should want
you 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 don't you like me?
Why don't you like me?
Walk out the door!
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 don't you like me?
Why don't you like me?
Walk out the door!
Oooh, oooh!

vocal Why would it be Freddy Mercury? Mika is using old school Hollywood names in the song if you listen closely...Grace Kelly obviously, Humphrey Bogart, so obviously Freddy in the song is Fred Astaire...duh...love the song

vocal Well Morgie
The Freddy refered to in the song is NOT Fred Astair. If you watch the video, the first time he sings the chorus, with the little girl on the piano, you will notice two things. First, the voice he sings the line in is a smart attempt of FreddyMurcury's voice. Secondly, the arm shooting up to his side while he sings is a trademark pose of Freddy Murcury's. Oh and I don't thinka great and destinguished man such as Fred Astair would tolerate ANYONE referring to him as "freddy" well maybe family and friends but not the "public"

vocal wow i really thought he was singing "i could be happy, i could be peppy" instead of "i could be hurtful, i could be purple"
but really, who should understand the lyrics, when he sings with this voice
but its cool, i like it. the whole song, especially the rythm .. its fun to dance to
