The One And Only Lyrics By Chesney Hawkes

    i am the one and only oh yeah

    call me call me by my name or call me by number
    you put me through it
    i’ll still be doing it the way i do it
    and yet you try to make me forget
    who i really am don’t tell me i know best
    i’m not the same as all the rest

    i am the one and only
    nobody i’d rather be
    i am the one and only
    you can’t take that away from me

    i’ve been a player in the crowd scene
    a flicker on the big screen
    my soul embraces one more in a million faces
    high hopes and aspirations and years above my station
    maybe but all this time i’ve tried to walk with dignity and pride

    i am the one and only
    nobody i’d rather be
    i am the one and only
    you can’t take that away from me

    i can’t wear this uniform without some compromises
    because you’ll find out that we come
    in different shapes and sizes
    no one can be myself like i can
    for this job i’m the best man
    and while this may be true
    you are the one and only you

    i am the one and only
    nobody i’d rather be
    i am the one and only
    you can’t take that away from me

    i am the one and only
    nobody i’d rather be
    i am the one and only
    you can’t take that away from me
