hope you like the new me
I stole your style, hope you don't mind I must try to be all I can be It suits me more than it ever suited you Hope you like the new me  And I stole your laugh so bright and breezy It stops parties in mid-air It makes me feel more devil may care Hope you like the new me Hope you like the new me  We all need friends to lean on Any time, any place, anywhere Feel free to lean on me But please, don't do it right now Yes, I'm much too busy right now  And I stole your walk, the one with purpose It says there is no mountain I can't climb It fools people all of the time Hope you like the new me  And I stole your jokes, just the good ones How the gang all laughed with glee I also stole the way that you tell them Hope you like the new me Hope you like the new me  To steal is to flatter, what a compliment to pay All those things that I stole from you Well, I might give them back someday Yes, I really might someday  And I stole your wife, hope you don't mind She was looking bored, don't you think? Soon have her back in the pink Stop by and see us for tea  And I stole your soul when you weren't looking I reached inside and cut it free It suits me more than it's ever suited you Hope you like the new me Hope you like the new me
