Strangers Like Me (Chiumba's Version)
by S.M. Scott
Disclaimer: I do not own Tarzan, Disney does. I only own the characters I made up. Take Chuimba and Elizabeth, for example. I also don't own this song, that honour belongs to Phil Collins. I only parodied it. Enjoy:)
What ever you do, I'll do it too
Show me everything and tell me how
Although I'm unsure
Why it's so important to me
I can see people staring at me
It tells me I'm not in the jungle anymore
I've never known such a society
I know they say it's better here
But why am I an outcast?
I wanna know
please shout it!
I need to be more like these strangers like me
tell me more
please shout it!
My mother lived among these strangers like me
To follow these rules,
To sit down to tea,
Makes me feel like I am going to yawn
The steps of a dance,
Why does it have to be me?
I can see there's so much to learn,
Arts, politics, operas, and literature
I've never felt so judged by anybody
One slip could insult someone
or hurt our reputations
I wanna know
please shout it!
I need to be more like these strangers like me
tell me more
please shout it!
my grandpa was one of these strangers like me
If only it could be like my world,
that nature and majesty,
But does it matter when
my real friends are far away
Is this the end?
Will we never ever go home?
I wanna know
please shout it!
I need to be more like these strangers like me
tell me more
please shout it!
I need my family to still be proud of me
But why can't I be me...?
