Morris Day The Character Lyrics

[VERSE I]
Guess I'm just a victim, girl
Victim of society
I guess I'm just a character
At least that's what the people think
(That's what they think!)

[CHORUS I]
I'm just a victim, girl
(He's just a victim!)
Victim of life today
(Society!)
I'm just a character
(You've got the character!)
At least that's what the people say
(That's what they say!)

[VERSE II]
Eyes of expectations girl
Look beyond reality
Just to be original
Doesn't come so easily
(Not easily!)

[CHORUS I]
I'm just a victim girl
(He's just a victim!)
Victim of life today
(Society!)
I'm just a character
(You've got the character!) At least that's what the people say
(That's what they say!)

[VERSE III]
Guess you'd call it image girl,
Or maybe personality...
I guess you'd call it character,
Wanted by society!

[BRIDGE] (Spoken)
Maybe what you're seeing is a bit of grandiosity on my part,
or maybe, it's just an image of what you'd like for me to be...
I'm not sure, but if it works for you, then it works for me

[CHORUS II]
I'm just a victim girl
(He's just a victim!)
Scared to fall in love
(Society!)
I'm just a character
(You've got the character!)
The Character... Open eyes and scared of love!
(Scared of love! [repeat 4x])
