Take this pink ribbon off my eyes Well, I'm exposed and it's no big surprise Don't you think I know exactly where I stand This world is forcing me to hold your hand 'Cause I'm just a girl, ol' little ol' me Don't let me out of your sight I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite So don't let me have any rights Oh, I've had it up to here The moment that I step outside So many reasons for me to run and hide Can't do the little things I hold so dear 'Cause it's those little things that I fear 'Cause I'm just a girl I'd rather not be 'Cause they won't let me drive late at night Well, I'm just a girl, guess I'm some kind of freak
'Cause they all sit and stare with their eyes Well, I'm just a girl, take a good look at me Just your typical prototype Oh, I've had it up to here Oh, am I making myself clear? I'm just a girl Well, I'm just a girl in the world That's all that you'll let me be Well, I'm just a girl, living in captivity Your rule of thumb makes me worry some Well, I'm just a girl, what's my destiny? What I've succumbed to is making me numb Well, I'm just a girl, my apologies What I've become's so burdensome I'm just a girl, well lucky me Tweedle-dumb, there's no comparison I've had it up to Oh, I've had it up to Here
