I wanna talk to you.
The last time we talked Mr. Smith you reduced me to tears. I promise you that wont happen again!
Do I attract you?
Do I repulse you with my queasy smile?
Am I too dirty?
Am I too flirty?
Do I like what you like?
I could be wholesome
I could be loathsome
I guess Im a little bit shy
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you like me without making me try?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I tried a little Freddie
I've gone identity mad!
I could be brown
I could be blue
I could be violet sky
I could be hurtful
I could be purple
I could be anything you like
Gotta be green
Gotta be mean
Gotta be everything more
Why dont you like me?
Why dont you like me?
Walk out the door!
Yea!
Getting angry doesn't solve anything.

Hello my baby
Hello my baby
Putting my life on the brink
Why dont you like me
Why dont you like me
Why dont you like yourself?
Should I bend over?
Should I look older just to be put on your shelf?
I tried to be like Grace Kelly
But all her looks were too sad
So I tried a little Freddie
I've gone identity mad!

Say what you want to satisfy yourself
Hey!
But you only want what everybody else says you should want, you want

Come on Humphrey, we're leaving

I understand that it is trying to adapt to be somebody else in order to please another person and ultimately it doesn't work!Changing to please someone else doesn't work and being like themselves doesn't work either. Hence 'Identity mad'.
I hope that helps a bit.
Thanks for the lyrics. A couple of the lines have been irritating as I coulldn't get them.

I always thought it was about him not being able to have a "certain girl" like him.
Because he is saying that he could be anything she wanted him to be and he is pretty much saying "why don't you like me?" but I have no idea what it has to do the actress Grace Kelly.
He sounds just like Freddie Mercury, its insane!

The other people who have answered are wrong - I know for a fact that it's aimed at Mika's former producers. They tried to make him conform to a stereotype but he was having none of it and wrote the song as an angry retaliation.

Grace Kelly or the tragic fate of a princess. i am not sure where i heard that: Weren't some people angry at her for leaving the US and move with some european goofball of a prince in Europe? some of the lyrics reminded me (maybe) of her daughter Stephanie (who was in the car-some paparazzis said she was actually driving-the day of princess Kelly's fatal accident); also, the rumor that the accident was, in fact, no accident but a mafia involved business... rumors....

Grace is all the things you mentioned above and much more. When we read thru all of the Bible, it is just there. But, one must fully realize who God is and who they are in Jesus, and to realize that GRACE is always to empower us, to do for God what He asks us to do. God is love. And we serve a mighty awesome almighty God that can do everything, and will give us the wisdom, knowledge and power to live as Jesus lives. Understanding grace has changed my life. Grace meets with mercy, LOVE, and when they meet up, miracles will come.
