Family Woman

I spend my whole life changing

Like the weather

Some days I wanna be

Like everyone

Come home from my job

In time for dinner

Watch a little TV

And be done

You say I'll change my mind

And think this over

And love the thought

Of kids and minivans

Though my life may be

No bed of clover

I'm happy with exactly

Where I stand

No don't take it personal

There's nothing wrong

With just the way you are

Please don't think

I'm being rude

It just ain't written in the stars

I want the bigger things in life

That I don't know how to get

I've only seen the figures

Of a perfect life with kids

Maybe I'm not gunning for that

I hope you'll understand

I'll never be a family woman

Cause that's just not who I am

I'll never be a family woman

Cause that's just not who I am

When I'm on the road

I'm my own company

You don't understand

The life I lead

I never have to worry

Bout somebody

When by myself I'm all

I'll ever need

I take no time with

Thinking on decisions

If I'm awake then

I am doing as I please

It's not like I'm not open

To revision

As long as I feel freedom

In the breeze

No don't take it personal

I like to watch you

Walking from afar

Please don't think

I'm being rude

It just ain't written in the stars

I want the bigger things in life

That I don't know how to get

I've only seen the figures

Of a perfect life with kids

Maybe I'm not gunning for that

I hope you'll understand

I'll never be a family woman

Cause that's just not who I am

I'll never be a family woman

Cause that's just not who I am
