Emmaline

Emmeline, The Orphan of the Castle is the first novel written by English writer Charlotte Smith; it was published in 1788. A Cinderella story in which the heroine stands outside the traditional economic structures of English society and ends up wealthy and happy, the novel is a fantasy. At the same time, it criticises the traditional marriage arrangements of the 18th century, which allowed women little choice and prioritised the needs of the family. Smith's criticisms of marriage stemmed from her personal experience and several of the secondary characters are thinly veiled depictions of her family, a technique which both intrigued and repelled contemporary readers.

I came to ruffle feathers
I came to step on toes
I never seek out competition
Cause I'm in a league all of my own
I don't take no for an answer
And I won't bite my tongue
I won't sit and look pretty, nah
Ah, like a lady

You want your women to be
Gentle, tender and sweet
Well that ain't me

Cause I won't speak like a lady
I'll never say pardon me
And I won't go down without a fight
Cause I'm not ladylike

Don't get it twisted
I'm a girl on a mission
This is business don't you know
So try acting professional
Just cause you're a man
Don't give you the upper hand
Cause I know what I want and I get it
Do as I say or regret it

You want your women to be
Gentle, tender and sweet
Well that ain't me

Cause I won't speak like a lady
I'll never say pardon me
And I won't go down without a fight
Cause I'm not ladylike

You want your women to be
Gentle, tender and sweet
Well that ain't me

Cause I won't speak like a lady
I'll never say pardon me
And I won't go down without a fight
Cause I'm not ladylike

I'm not a lady
I'm not a lady
