Lyrics
LUCKY ME
Oh Cinderella, I?d like it better, to be in your shoes
Down on your knees nowhere to be, nothing to lose
To be so lucky, to be so lucky, to be so lucky as you
Mr Professor, could it be better, than to be you
You know the answers you know the right from the wrong, you never have to choose
To be so lucky, you seem so lucky, I wish I was you
Tell me mother how?d you discover the secrets of happiness
All the little things seem to fill you up, you never feel my emptiness
Show me how, show me mother, I wish I was you
Tell me how, to live like you do, I wish I was you
Oh Miss Celebrity how does it feel to be so loved by everyone
It must be so rewarding to see us all adoring every little move you make
How did you do it? How?d you get so lucky, I wish I was you
You got everything you ever wanted, I wish I was you
Tell me somebody, looking down on me, why am I so miserable
I got everything I ever wanted, everything I need
Cinderella and the Professor are not as lucky as me
And I am really just like my mother, and I?m a celebrity
Thank you somebody smiling down on me, Thank you for me
I don?t really want, to be anyone else, anyone but me
?Cause I got everything, I ever wanted, why couldn?t I just see
That I?m so lucky to be who I am, lucky me
