I want to be like other girls
Climb up a tree like others girls can
Just to be free like other girls

GET TO BE

To slouch when i sit
To eat a whole cake
Feel the sun on my feet
Get dirty, act silly
Be anything I want to be
Dance around in my underwear

To run really fast
To get rid of this fan
To eat a whole cake
Get crazy with frosting

No escort
No manners
No nursemaids
No worries
No hands folded perfect
Like holding a lily
No pinchy shoes

I want to be like other girls
Scrape up my knees like other girls can
Just to be free like other girls

GET TO BE

To speak for myself
To sing way off key
Marry someone i met who loves me for me

No escort
No manners
No nursemaids
No worries
No hands folded perfect
Like holding a lily
No pinchy shoes


I want to be like other girls
Climb up a tree like other girls can
Just to be free like other girls

GET TO BE
