samuel e. wright - you got to be you lyrics

Loading...

[sebastian]
when i was but a schoolboy, i dreamed i would grow tall
and man, it made me crabby that a crab could be so small

with this i tell my teacher, she say, “but don’t you see?
each and every creature is exactly how they should be

she said we all are special from jellyfish to king
we all do different thing, and with that she start to sing

(with chorus)

you got to be you, i got to be me
it’s simple but true
what else could you do? who else could you be?

you got your own style, now let it come through
and remember no matter what you got to be you!

[crabettes]
skatefish got to skate; stingray got to sting
catfish got to purr, and sebastian got to sing (sebastian: you betcha, buddy!)
seahorse have to ride; flounder got to play

[sebastian]
and whale, he got to make the trouble all the livelong day!
(spoken: ariel, are you listening to what i’m singing? pay attention now!)

[crabettes]
ay, yi, yi, yi, yi, yi!

[sebastian]
so why should you be gloomy that you’re too big or small?
the sea is very roomy, and there’s plenty room for us all

you heard my little story, now let it be your guide
just treat yourself with pride, you’ll be more than satisfied

you got to be you, i got to be me
i’ll try to be clearer, look in the mirror
what do you see?

you see what i mean, now let us review

let’s see now… some may be tiny, some got the claws
gills may be shiny, sharks got the jaws
down in the briny, those are the laws

[crabettes]
and that is why we sing!

(brief pause)

[sebastian] (with chorus)
you got to be you, i got to be me
it’s simple but true
what else could you do? who else could you be?

you got your own style, now let it come through

you got your own voice (you got your own voice)
you got to rejoice (you got to rejoice)
you got to be you
no, don’t be so blue!
