Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
When I was small, light-hearted girl
My daddy said: be true and strong
And I was trying all the time
I knew all rules
But failed an exam

[Chorus]
I’m like a bird — black or white
I live my life wrong or right

[Verse 2]
I met you then
It was so cool
But I forgot the world has a rules
One life’s too short to say it all
I’m who I am, can’t please them all

[Chorus]
I’m like a bird — black or white
I live my life wrong or right

[Chorus]
I’m like a, I’m like a bird
I’m like a bird — black or white
I live my life wrong or right
