Down in the dungeon I'm having a hard time
I get my love on condition and my Dewar's without lime
Up in the tower you're countin' the fault lines
(I say) I am who I am---whadda you want from me
Long distance warfare from over the phone lines
Terminal airfare--I'm crossin' the red line
Can't tell the diff'rence 'tween a "wait" and a "walk" sign
But you know who I am---whadda you want from me (nah yeah)
You preach forgiveness but once in a dog's day
Naw but nobody listens to everything you say
You want the business, ya have it your own way
But you know who I am---whadda you want from me
Now I can't see no maybe, I can't see it at all
I seen through you baby, You wanna have it all...you take me tothe wall
(ow!)
Whadda you want from me...
(I said)you know who I am---whadda you want
I done what I can---take what you want
I am who I am---whadda you want from me
