Lyrics
0:16The talk among the skeletons this morning
0:21Aside from all the medicine and health
0:26If you could do it all again would you do it all the same
0:31Is there something that you'd tell your former self
0:37There were those that wished they'd spun upon the jukebox
0:42There were pirates who had never seen the sea
0:47But the one recurring theme the one recurring dream they had
0:53Was to be whatever they wanted to be
0:57Chris Martin/Will Champion:
0:58To be Pyotr Tchaikovsky
1:03To be free and like everyone else
1:08There will be no flags to own me no
1:14'Cos I just want to be myself
1:29Chris Martin:
1:31Julie telephoning by a ouija
1:35Is there any advice that you could give
1:41When you know you're not like them
1:43Do you know La Varsovienne
1:46I know that I am living but can you show me how to live
1:50Chris Martin/Will Champion:
1:51And the Holy Roman Army
1:56Said your heart beats like everyone else
2:02But you don't need no flags to tell you who you are so say
2:08I just want to be myself
2:13Chris Martin:
2:15La-la-la-la la-la-la-la la-la-la-la
2:21La-la-la-la la-la-la-la la-la-la-la
2:26La-la-la-la la-la-la-la la-la-la-la
2:31La-la-la-la la-la-la-la la-la-la-la
2:34Chris Martin/Will Champion:
2:34There's an aura that surrounds thee
2:39There's a different kind of wealth
2:44And I don't need flags to know you're really something
2:50And I just love you for yourself
2:55Oh I just love you for yourself
3:03Chris Martin:
3:08La-la-la-la la-la-la-la la-la-la-la
3:14La-la-la-la la-la-la-la la-la-la-la
3:19La-la-la-la la-la-la-la la-la-la-la
