One Day I Might Have A Say

I think a lot about things that I couldn't say

And places I wish I had stayed

Salty with kids who do better than me

'Cause I think I underachieved

Better make it while you're still in your twenties

Run against the clock!

Use a lot of makeup and shut up and climb to the top

But why can't I just be happy?

Here's what they all tell me:

"Make a lot of money

Winner takes it all! Let it rain!"

I'm playing for somebody else to gain, ya

Be the one who makes it

Fake it like I'm fine so that maybe I'll wake up one day

I might have a say

I can get most of the things that I kinda want

But things that I need I got none

Like a seat at the table is mission impossible

Or saying something honest and fun

Better make it while you're still in your twenties

Especially if you are a lady

Run up to the top and get ready to brace for the fall

But why can't I just be happy?

Here's what they all tell me:

"Make a lot of money"

Winner takes it all! Let it Rain!"

I'm playing for somebody else to gain, ya

Be the one who makes it

Fake it like I'm fine so that maybe I'll wake up one day

I might have a say

I might have a say

Fake it so well so perhaps one day

I might have a say

I might have a say

Took the whole of my twenties to learn

You get

What they cannot take

They all tell me:

"Just be hot and pretty!

Winner takes it all! Let it Rain!"

I'm playing for somebody else to gain, ya

Be the one who makes it

Fake it like I'm fine so that maybe I'll wake up one day

I might have a say
