Lyrics

I bounce to the beat of my own drum

I'm a wow in a world full of ho-hum

I'm a wild young lady, but you know sum'?

I'd rather be at home with my own drum

I bounce to the beat of my own drum

I'm a wow in a world full of ho-hum

I'm a wild young lady, but you know sum'?

I'd rather be at home with my own drum

I had a violin, but I wrecked the rental

I play the tambourine and I'm never gentle

See what I mean? That was accidental

But now that we're a team, we'll be instrumental

Instrumental, ha

See what I did there?

I made a pun, ha

I'm having fun, ha

I'm never done, ha

I'm just a one young woman

Ba rum pa pum pum

I bounce to the beat of my own drum

I'm a wow in a world full of ho-hum

I'm a wild young lady, but you know sum'?

I'd rather be at home with my own drum

Extra, extra, read all about it

I'm extra, extra

The kid that the other kids can't get next to

I got my own seat on the bus

I've always been a me, not an us

"You're at a ten"

"I need you at a three, ha

Try that again

I gotta be me, yo

I am a ten

I gotta be free and I, I got a friend

We're a team and we

Bounce to the beat of our own drum

We're a wow in a world full of ho-hum

I'm a wild young lady, but you know sum'?

I'd rather be at home with my own drum

Solo

Ha, now that's a solo

I've always flown solo

I speed up when the world's in slo-mo

Make it up as I go when I don't know

And I know

I know it seems like I'm lonely

People assume that I'm lonely

Look at this room and assume that you know me, homie

You don't know me, I'm in the zone

We bounce to the beat of our own drum

We're a wow in a world full of ho-hum

I'm a wild young lady, but you know sum'?

I'd rather be at home with my own drum

We bounce to the beat of our own drum

We're a wow in a world full of ho-hum

I'm a wild young lady, but you know sum'?

I'd rather be at home with my own drum

Bounce (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Bounce (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Bounce (Hey, hey, hey, hey)

Bounce (Hey, hey, hey)

Where'd you go, huh?
