You see me everywhere, in my underwear
You may wonder what I'm here to sell
But underneath my stare, I'm so naked there
There are secrets I'm dying to tell

It's hard to be me
Nobody knows what it's like to be
The envy of mediocrity
If you could see 
All my depth and complexity
I'd think you'd agree
It's hard to be me; it's hard to be me

I am up here alone, on my glamorous throne
Want to thank all you people down there
I was once an unknown, like you but I've grown 
I have so much I'm hoping to share

It's hard to be me
Nobody knows what it's like to be
The envy of mediocrity
If you could see
All my depth and complexity
I'd think you'd agree
It's hard to be me, it's hard to be me

I guess you think that it's hard for you
Walking 'round in your little shoes
You don't know how I've sacrificed
To live this life, to look so nice

It's hard to be me
Nobody knows what it's like to be
The envy of mediocrity
If you could see 
All my depth and complexity
I'd think you'd agree
It's hard to be me, it's hard to be me

Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
