lady taking liberty

You can be anything 

As long as you play along —

Say pretty please

and stay pretty, please.

Cause in this kingdom

(Of course it’s tragic)

It takes that kind of magic

To make doors slide

From shut to open.

Now after all this time

Of perfecting her power 

She’s up in arms

Waving her arms

On the verge of breaking 

While trying to bend 

Into all the shapes

She has to make

To be less than

Him and all them.

Man isn’t it fun being a girl 

Cause you know 

We know 

How much you love it

When we make our knees

Touch our elbows. 

Chalk it up to luck, 

A forever unbroken spell

Getting what I want

Working real hard 

And acting real sweet 

And sleeping real good 

Not worried about 

being misunderstood.
