Is It My Body
[Intro, spoken]

Who I really am?
[Verse 2]

Who I really am?
Something inside me
Something inside me
Something inside me
Something inside me
Something inside me
Something inside me
Something inside me
[Verse 1]
What have I got
That makes you want to love me?
Is it my body?
Or someone I might be?
Or something inside me?
[Chorus]
You better tell me
Tell me
It's really up to you
Have you got the time to find out
Who I really am?
