"what it means to be a girl" lyrics

"what it means to be a girl"

Fake a smile, fake an orgasm
Fake a laugh, do it all for him
Be polite, spend the night, call it self-defense
Got the time of his life at my own expense

But even if he were my man
He'd never truly understand
What it means to be a girl

Put ribbons in my curls
Then carry round a knife with my diamonds
It's psycho we're living in a world
Where I get into clubs because I'm hot as fuck
But I don't trust what's in my cup
That's What it means to be a girl

Take his name, give your sanity
Take the blame, put his mind at ease
Trade it all for a false sense of security
Fall in love fall in line with all his fantasies

But even if he were my man
He'd never truly understand
What it means to be a girl

Put ribbons in my curls
Then carry round a knife with my diamonds
It's psycho we're living in a world
Where I get into clubs because I'm hot as fuck
But I don't trust what's in my cup
That's What it means to be a girl

Fake it till we make everyone happy but ourselves
Use us for our bodies till there's nothing but a shell
It's a mutual experience we're not supposed to tell
Man, don't act like you have felt
What it means to be a girl

Put ribbons in my curls
Then carry round a knife with my diamonds
It's psycho we're living in a world
Where I get into clubs because I'm hot as fuck
But I don't trust what's in my cup
That's what it means to be a girl

What it means to be a girl
What it means to be a girl
