I'm Just Ken

From the major motion picture 'Barbie.' Written by Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyat. Performed by Ryan Gosling.

[Verse 1]

Doesn't seem to matter what I do

I'm always number two

No one knows how hard I tried, oh-oh, I

I have feelings that I can't explain

Drivin' me insane

All my life, been so polite

But I'll sleep alone tonight


[Chorus]

'Cause I'm just Ken

Anywhere else, I'd be a ten

Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blond fragility?

I'm just Ken

Where I see love, she sees a friend

What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me?


[Verse 2]

I wanna know what it's like to love

To be the real thing

Is it a crime? Am I not hot when I'm in my feelings?

And is my moment finally here, or am I dreaming?

I'm no dreamer


[Bridge]

Can you feel the Ken-ergy?

Feels so real, my Ken-ergy

Can you feel the Ken-ergy?

Feels so real, my Ken-ergy

[Chorus]

I'm just Ken

Anywhere else, I'd be a ten

Is it my destiny to live and die a life of blond fragility?

I'm just Ken

Where I see love, she sees a friend

What will it take for her to see the man behind the tan and fight for me?

[Outro]

I'm just Ken (And I'm enough)

And I'm great at doing stuff

So, hey, check me out, yeah, I'm just Ken

My name's Ken (And so am I)

Put that manly hand in mine

So, hey, world, check me out, yeah, I'm just Ken

Baby, I'm just Ken

(Nobody else, nobody else)
