Little girls, listen closely 'Cause no one told me But you deserve to know That in this world, you are not beholden You do not owe them Your body and your soul All the youth in the world will not save you from growing older And all the truth in the girl is too precious to be stolen from her It's just the way it is Maybe it's never gonna change But I got a mind to show my strength And I got a right to speak my mind And I'm gonna pay for this They're gonna burn me at the stake But I got a fire in my veins I wasn't made to fall in line No, I wasn't made to fall in line, no Show some skin, make him want you 'Cause God forbid you Know your own way home And ask yourself why it matters Who it flatters You're more than flesh and bones All the youth in the world will not save you from growing older And all the truth in the girl is too precious to be stolen from her It's just the way it is And maybe it's never gonna change But I got a mind to show my strength And I got a right to speak my mind And I'm gonna pay for this They're gonna burn me at the stake But I got a fire in my veins I wasn't made to fall in line No, no, I wasn't made to fall in line No, we aren't made to fall in line, oh Two, three Right, two, three Shut your mouth Stick your ass out for me (oh) March, two, three One, two, three Who told you you're allowed to think?
