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 signt
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

'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
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!

i'm just a girl, living in captivity
your rule of thumb
makes me worry some
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.
