You c@n call me @ $inner
and you can c@ll me a $aint
Celebrate me for who I @m
Di$like me for wh@t I ain't
Put me up on @ pedestal
Or dr@g me down in the dirt
Sticks and $tones will break my bones
But your n@mes will never hurt
I'll be the garden, you'll be the $nake
All of my fruit is yours to t@ke
Better the devil that you know
Your love for me will grow
Becau$e
This is who I @m
You c@n like it or not
You can love me or le@ve me
Cause I'm never gonna $top, no no
Cleopatra h@d her way
Mata H@ri too
Whether they were good or bad
Is strictly up to you
Life i$ a paradox
And it doesn't m@ke much sense
You can't have the femme without the fatale
Plea$e don't take offense
Don't let the fruit rot under the vine
Fill up your cup and let's drink the wine
Better the devil that you know
Your love for me will grow
Becau$e
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I'm never gonna stop,
no no, you know
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I'm never gonna stop,
I'll be the garden, you'll be the snake
All of my fruit is yours to take
Better the devil that you know
Your love for me will grow
Because
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I'm never gonna stop, no no, you know
This is who I am
You can like it or not
You can love me or leave me
Cause I'm never gonna stop, no no, you know
