I stole your style, hope you don't mind
I must try to be all I can be
It suits me more than it ever suited you
Hope you like the new me

And I stole your laugh so bright and breezy
It stops parties in mid-air
It makes me feel more devil may care
Hope you like the new me
Hope you like the new me

We all need friends to lean on
Any time, any place, anywhere
Feel free to lean on me
But please, don't do it right now
Yes, I'm much too busy right now

And I stole your walk, the one with purpose
It says there is no mountain I can't climb
It fools people all of the time
Hope you like the new me

And I stole your jokes, just the good ones
How the gang all laughed with glee
I also stole the way that you tell them
Hope you like the new me
Hope you like the new me

To steal is to flatter, what a compliment to pay
All those things that I stole from you
Well, I might give them back someday
Yes, I really might someday

And I stole your wife, hope you don't mind
She was looking bored, don't you think?
Soon have her back in the pink
Stop by and see us for tea

And I stole your soul when you weren't looking
I reached inside and cut it free
It suits me more than it's ever suited you
Hope you like the new me
Hope you like the new me
