All': I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
Whoever I wanna be
Whatever I wanna see
I can be and still be me
Orange Blossom: I can be a great explorer
Looking strong and oh-so-brave
I would search for jungle treasure
While exploring every cave
Ginger Snap: And I can be a pilot
As around the world I'd roam
My plane just like an eagle
And I'd bring her safely home
All: I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
Whoever I wanna be
Whatever I wanna see
I can be and still be me
Angel Cake: I can be a Leonardo
Painting portraits from the heart
My beret the perfect angle
Every smile a work of art
Blueberry Muffin: And I can be an actress
In a brilliant stage debut
And make a million movies
And appear on TV too
All: I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
Strawberry Shortcake: I could be your favorite doctor
Making hurty boo-boos stop
And you'd get a rainbow bandage
And a strawberry lollipop
Others: Whenever we play dress-up
It's as fun as it can be
Strawberry Shortcake: 'Cause beneath the clothes and makeup
I'm still me
Others: And we're still we
All: I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
I can be
(I can be)
Whoever I wanna be
Whatever I wanna see
I can be and still be me
Yes, I can be
And still be me
