Open up your eyes Take a look at me Get the picture fixed In your memory I'm driven by the rhythm Like the beat of a heart And I won't stop until I start To stand out To stand out Some people settle for the typical thing Livin' all their lives waitin' in the wings It ain't a question of if Just a matter of time Before I move to the front of the line Once you're watching every move that I make You gotta believe that I got what it takes To stand out Above the crowd Even if I gotta shout out loud 'Til mine is the only face you see Gonna stand out 'Til you notice me If the sticky wheel's always gettin' the grease I'm totally devoted to disturbing the peace And I'll do it all again when I get it done Until I become your number one No method to the madness and no means of escape Gonna break every rule I'll bend 'em all outta shape It ain't no question of how just a matter of when You get the message that I'm tryin to send I'm under a spell I'm in over my head And you know I'm goin' all of the way to the end To stand out Above the crowd Even if I gotta shout out loud 'Til mine is the only face you see Gonna stand out 'Til you notice me, yeah If I could make you stop and take a look at me Instead of just (Walkin' by) There's nothin' that I wouldn't do If it was gettin' you to notice (I'm alive) All I need is half a chance A second thought A second glance to prove I got whatever it takes It's a piece of cake To stand out Above the crowd Even if I gotta shout out loud 'Til mine is the only face you see Gonna stand out, stand out, hey Stand out Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Stand out, mmm 'Til mine is the only face you see Gonna stand out 'Til you notice me
