That's Just Exactly What I Like About Me
Catherine Slonecki, M. S.

 Listen to this song.

This song is available on "I'm Just Happy to be Me."


Extension Activities:
     Make a wonder box in which students can see the most important person in the world. It can be any kind of box with a mirror placed so that all who look inside can see themselves. Let each child look in the box individually. Most children will be very surprised to find out that they are the most special person. Ask them to keep this a secret.
      After all the children have had turns, lead a discussion about everyone’s unique qualities.

I have freckles and red hair.
Most of my teeth aren't even there.
I can sing any melody,
And that’s just exactly what I like about me.
Chorus:
We hear what you’re saying
And we know that it’s true
‘Cause that’s just exactly what we like about you.

I am dark with curly hair,
And I'm a bookworm in my easy chair.
I love to read, and I guess you can see
That’s just exactly what I like about me.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
We all really like ourselves.
We wouldn’t want to be like anyone else.
We’re so unique as we agree,
There isn’t anybody else we'd rather be.

I’m as wide as I am tall
And I’ve loved drawing since I was small
I can draw anything I see,
And that’s just exactly what I like about me.

Repeat Chorus

I have glasses and long hair,
And my sense of humor is something rare.
When I giggle it's contagious and I'm sure you’ll
agree,
That’s just exactly what I like about me.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
We’re all different you can see.
But that’s just the way that it's supposed to be.
Wouldn’t it be dull if we all were the same?
We wouldn’t even need to have different names.

I’m a blonde with a great big smile,
And I can swim for about a mile.
In the water’s where I like to be.
And that’s just exactly what I like about me.

Repeat Chorus

So if you’re feeling sad and blue
Just make a list of all the things you like about you.
Give it a try, and this is the key.
Say, “That’s just exactly what I like about me.”

 

This song is available on "I'm Just Happy to be Me."
