lyrics

Hey dad, please understand,
I’m not the lady grandma thinks I am
& hey dad, don’t hold your breath,
I’m not pulling out the blades,
That’s not how i was raised

In the end it’s kind of your fault,
You’re the one who told me to always be myself and,
In the end you’re the one to blame,
You should not have brought me up the correct way

I don’t want to cross my legs
It don’t come naturally
& I know you’re not fond and fair enough
But admit it,
You’re kind of proud of me

Hey mum, please understand,
I’m not the lady your mother thinks I am
& frankly, I’m quite surprised
We’re having this conversation when you’re the reason why

Oh in the end it’s kind of your fault,
You’re the one who told me to always be myself and,
In the end you’re the one to blame,
A strong woman is not a role you should have played

I don’t want to cross my legs
It don’t come naturally
& I know you’re not fond and fair enough
But admit it,
you’re kind of proud of me
Yeah yeah and,
I don’t wanna play it safe
I don’t care to be a lady
& I know you’re not fond & fair enough
But admit it,
You’re kind of proud of me

Yeah yeah


And I don’t want to cross my legs
Yeah I don’t want to cross my legs
No no no and,

I don’t want to cross my legs
It don’t come naturally
& I know you’re not fond and fair enough
But admit it,
you’re kind of proud of me
Yeah yeah and,
I don’t wanna play it safe
I don’t care to be a lady
& I know you’re not fond & fair enough
But admit it,
You’re kind of proud of me

Yes I’m that weirdo who does what she believes,
Surely that makes you proud of me
