(Spoken:) Girls can wear jeans And cut their hair short Wear shirts and boots 'Cause it's OK to be a boy But for a boy to look like a girl is degrading 'Cause you think that being a girl is degrading But secretly you'd love to know what it's like Wouldn't you What it feels like for a girl
Silky smooth Lips as sweet as candy, baby Tight blue jeans Skin that shows in patches
Strong inside but you don't know it Good little girls they never show it When you open up your mouth to speak Could you be a little weak
Chorus:
Do you know what it feels like for a girl Do you know what it feels like in this world For a girl
Hair that twirls on finger tips so gently, baby Hands that rest on jutting hips repenting
Hurt that's not supposed to show And tears that fall when no one knows When you're trying hard to be your best Could you be a little less
(chorus) (chorus, prefixing 3rd line with 'What it feels like')
Strong inside but you don't know it Good little girls they never show it When you open up your mouth to speak Could you be a little weak
(chorus, repeat)
In this world Do you know Do you know Do you know what it feels like for a girl What it feels like in this world
