Down in the dungeon Im having a hard time
I get my love on condition and my dewars without lime
Up in the tower youre 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--Im crossin the red line
Cant tell the diffrence 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 dogs 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 cant see no maybe, I cant see it at all
I seen through you baby, you wanna have it all...you take me to the 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
