Just Happy To Be Me Lyrics - Elmopalooza! - Sesame Street

I'm Kingston Livingston the Third, as in three 

Named after my dad, and his dad before me 

But I'm an original, one of a kind, unique 

So kick back and listen up while I speak 

I watch all my friends flip their caps to the back 

But I kept mine to the front because I like it like that 

Not trying to be different, just doing my own thing 

So come on, clap your hands and sing 

Be yourself, easy as ABC 

Can't be no one else 

Just happy to be me 

I went to a party just the other day 

With all my friends from school and around the way 

The music was playing they all jumped to their feet 

But I danced to a drummer with a different kind of beat 

My friends want to know why I don't move like them 

I said, your dance is cool, but I dance like Kingston 

I like your style, but I've got my own thing 

So come on, and clap your hands and sing 

Be yourself, easy as ABC 

Can't be no one else 

Just happy to be me 

I was reading a book one day at home 

When I heard the ring-ring of the telephone 

It was a couple of friends inviting me out to play 

But I said I'm kind of busy, maybe later today 

You see, right now I'm exercising my imagination 

I'd rather read than skate, I said without hesitation 

Not trying to be different, just doing the Kingston thing 

So come on, clap your hands and sing 

(When he's cooking up a meal) 

I do it my way 

(When he's got a base to steal) 

I do it my way 

(When he's riding a bike) 

I do it my way 

(When he's going for a hike) 

I do it my way 

(When he's picking clothes to wear) 

I do it my way 

(When he's combing out his hair) 

I do it my way 

(When he wants to just cool) 

I do it my way 

(When it's time to go to school) 

You know I do that the right way! 

Be yourself, easy as ABC 

Can't be no one else 

Just happy to be me 

Just happy to, happy to be me 

Me!
