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

[Chorus]
Cause I'm just a girl, little old 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
I can't do the little things I hold so dear
Cause it's all those little things
That I fear

[Chorus]
Cause I'm just a girl, I'd rather not be
Cause they won't let me drive
Late at night I'm just a girl
Guess I'm some kind of freak
Cause they all sit and stare with their eyes

[Chorus]
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
I'm just a girl in the world
That's all that you'll let me be

[Chorus]
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 I've succumbed 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
Twiddle-dum, there's no comparison

Oh., I've had it up to
Oh, I've had it up to
Oh, I've had it up to here
