Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All our friends, they're getting on
But the girls are still staying young
If I get caught being rude in a conversation
With a child bride on her summer vacation
[Verse 2]
No matter how hard I try to be just one of the guys
There's a little something inside that won't let me
No matter how hard I try to have an open mind
There's a little voice inside that prevents me
[Verse 3]
Oh how I live, it got me here
Locked in this bathroom, full of tears
And I have begged for you and I have borrowed
But I've been the other sister to my own sorrow
[Verse 4]
No matter how hard I try to just be one of the guys
There's a little something inside that won't let me
No matter how hard I try to have an open mind
There's a little clock inside that keeps ticking
[Verse 5]
There's only one difference between you and me
When I look at myself, all I can see
I'm just another lady without a baby
[Verse 6]
No matter how hard I try to be just one of the guys
There's a little something inside that won't let me
No matter how hard I try to have an open mind
There's a little cop inside that prevents me
[Verse 7]
I'm not gonna break for you
I'm not gonna pray for you
I'm not gonna pay for you
That's not what ladies do
[Verse 8]
Oh when you break
Oh, when you break
