I dig this. I hear, “You want me be somebody who I’m really not” in the chorus, What if the song is just an exercise in what she’s “really not” (meaning, easy, commercial pop). It’s ironic in the way Paper Planes is ironic (promoting the stereotype that all immigrants just get high and cause violence).
