just a girl
(g. stefani, t. dumont)
take this pink ribbon off my eyes
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, 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
whoaaaa, i've had it up to here.
the moment that i stepped outside
so many reasons for me to run and hide
i cant do the little things i hold so dear
'cause it's all those little things
that i fear
cause i'm just a girl, i'd rather not be
'cause they wont let me drive late at night
i'm just a girl, yes i'm some kind of freak
'cause they all sit and stare with their eyes
oh i'm just a girl, take a good look at me
just your typical prototype
whoaaa, i've had it up to here.
whoaaa, am i making myself clear?
i'm just a girl...
i'm just a girl in the world
'cause that's all that you'll let me be!
i'm just a girl living in captivity,
your rule of thumb makes me worrisome
i'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
what ive succumb to is making me numb
i'm just a girl, my apologies
what i've become is so burdensome
i'm just a girl, lucky me
tweedledumb, there's no comparison
whoaaa, i've had it up to
whoaaa, i've had it up to
whoaaa, i've had it up to
here.
