I'm No Heroine |
You think I wouldn’t have him |
Unless I could have him by the balls |
You think I just dish it out |
You don’t think I take it at all |
You think I am stronger |
You think I walk taller than the rest |
You think I’m usually wearing the pants |
Just cause I rarely wear a dress |
Well… |
When you look at me |
You see my purpose |
See my pride |
You think I just saddle up my anger |
And ride and ride and ride |
You think I stand so firm |
You think I sit so high on my trusty steed |
Let me tell you |
I’m usually face down on the ground |
When there’s a stampede |
I’m no heroine |
At least, not last time I checked |
I’m too easy to roll over |
I’m too easy to wreck |
I just write about |
What I should have done |
I just sing |
What I wish I could say |
And hope somewhere |
Some woman hears my music |
And it helps her through her day |
Cause some guy designed |
These shoes I use to walk around |
Some big man’s business turns a profit |
Every time I lay my money down |
Some guy designed the room I’m standing in |
Another built it with his own tools |
Who says I like right angles? |
These are not my laws |
There are not my rules |
I’m no heroine |
I still answer to the other half of the race |
I don’t fool myself |
Like I fool you |
I don’t have the power |
We just don’t run this place |
