Try to understand
what i'm not
and what i am
i'm hiding like a boy
but staring like a man
star above the sea
i live to watch it breathe
make you make-believe
and tell you how to be
Little girl dance for me
little girl dance for me
and slowly move your hips
in low circles slowly
little girl dance for me
little girl dance

don't try running
i know where you'll hide
don't start lying
i can read your mind
just do everything i taught you to
got you where i want you

don't cry baby
when you can't resist
nothing you can say
will get you out of this
there's not anything that you can do
got you where i want you

try to understand
who i'm not
and who i am
i'm strong enough to run
but not enough to stand
i've collected moods
the one everybody knows
holding onto some
but some i'm letting go

little girl dance for me
little girl dance for me
and separate your knees
like you're on a harley
little girl dance for me
god damn it
like there is no one on the planet

don't try running
i know where you'll hide
don't start lying
i can read your mind
just do everything i taught you to
got you where i want you

don't cry baby
when you can't resist
nothing you can say
will get you out of this
there's not anything that you can do
got you where i want you

i'm ready to wait in some dark corner
is it getting late or just getting warmer
let's play, let's play, my lady
right now, right now

don't try running
i know where you'll hide
don't start lying
i can read your mind
just do everything i taught you to
got you where i want you

don't cry baby
when you can't resist
nothing you can say
will get you out of this
there's not anything that you can do
got you where i want you
