Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I am not your typical girl

Throw away that picture in your head

I am not your typical girl

Work harder now, work harder

I am not your typical girl

Throw away that picture in your head

I am not your typical girl

Work harder now, work harder

[Verse 2]

Work, work

Work, work

[Verse 3]

Oh I'm different, I'm a cup of mild sauce

Sweet tongue, but don't get me in a paper cut

I'll fight you with my eyes oh, when they call me shy

They just frightened of what's in my mind

[Verse 4]

These great-greats won't let me lie, midnight eyes wide

Feels like I'm at the riverside

Great greats come down, they whisper to me quiet

I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive

[Verse 5]

I am not your typical girl

Throw away that picture in your head

I am not your typical girl

Work harder now, work harder

I am not your typical girl

Throw away that picture in your head

I am not your typical girl

Work harder now, work harder

[Verse 6]

Work, work

Work, work

[Verse 7]

What is it with you independent men?

It's always something threatenin' your masculine

Energy, you think it's fleeting

Nothing you ain't give to me, I can take away from you now

Let me be, I'm tryin' to fly, you insist on clippin' my wings

[Verse 8]

I am not your typical girl

Throw away that picture in your head

I am not your typical girl

Work harder now, work harder

I am not your typical girl

Throw away that picture in your head

I am not your typical girl

Work harder now, work harder

[Verse 9]

Running from myself

I come undone

I wait, I try
