not a pretty girl
i am not a pretty girl
that is not what i do
i ain't no damsel in distress
and i dont need to be
rescued
so put me down punk
wouldnt you prefer a
maiden fair
isnt there a kitten
stuck up a tree somewhere
i am not an angry girl
but it seems like
i've got everyone fooled
everytime i say something
they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my
anger
never to their own fear
imagine yr a girl
just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well
they'd prefer
you were dirty and smiling
i'm sorry
but i am not a maiden fair
and i am not a kitten
stuck up in a tree somewhere
generally my generation
wouldnt be caught dead
working for the man
and generally
i agree with them
trouble is you gotta have yrself
an alternate plan
i have earned my
disillusionment
i have been working all of my life
i am a patriot
i have been fighting the good fight
and what if there are
no damsels in distress
what if
i knew that
and i called yr bluff
dont you think
that every kitten
figures out how to get down
whether or not you show up
i am no a pretty girl
i dont really wanna be a pretty girl
i want to be more
than a pretty girl
