I Am...I Said (Reprise)

Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of bein' a king?

And then became one

Well, except for the names, and a few other changes

If you talk about me

The story's the same one

But I got an emptiness deep inside

And I've tried, but it won't let me go

And I'm not a man who likes to swear

But I never cared for the sound of bein' alone

"I am," I said

To no one there

And no one heard at all

Not even the chair

"I am," I cried

"I am," said I

And I am lost and I can't

Even say why

"I am," I said

"I am," I cried

"I am"

"I am," I said

"I am," and I cried

"I am"
