Part Of Me

Song byKaty Perry

in AlbumTeenage Dream

Days like this I want to drive away

Pack my bags and watch your shadow fade

[Standard version:] 'Cause you chewed me up and spit me out

["Complete Confection" version:] You chewed me up and spit me out

Like I was poison in your mouth

You took my light, you drained me down

But that was then and this is now

Now look at me

[Chorus:]

This is the part of me

That you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no

This is the part of me

That you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no

Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows

But you’re not gonna break my soul

This is the part of me

That you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no

I just wanna throw my phone away

Find out who is really there for me

[Standard version:] 'Cause you ripped me off, your love was cheap

["Complete Confection" version:] You ripped me off, your love was cheap

Was always tearing at the seams

I fell deep, you let me down

But that was then and this is now

Now look at me

[Chorus]

Now look at me I’m sparkling

A firework, a dancing flame

You won't ever put me out again

I’m glowin’, oh whoa

[Standard version:] You can keep the dog from me

["Complete Confection" version:] So you can keep the diamond ring

[Standard version:] I never liked it anyway

["Complete Confection" version:] It don't mean nothing anyway

In fact you can keep everything yeah, yeah

Except for me

[Chorus]

[Standard ending:]

This is the part of me

That you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no

This is the part of me

That you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no

Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows

But you’re not gonna break my soul

This is the part of me

That you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no

["Complete Confection" ending:]

This is the part of me, no

Away from me, no

This is the part of me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me..., no

Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows

But you’re not gonna break my soul

This is the part of me

That you’re never gonna ever take away from me, no
