Madi Diaz, S.G. Goodman & Joy Oladokun Lyrics

"Be Careful"
(originally by Patti Griffin)

One, two, three

All the girls in the Paris night
All the girls in the pale moonlight
All the girls with the shopping bags
All the girls with the washing rags
All the girls on the telephone
All the girls standing all alone
All the girls sitting on the wire
Who one by one fly into the fire

Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me

All the girls standing by your beds
All the girls standing on their heads
All the girls with the broken arms
All the girls with the deadly charms
All the girls in the restaurants
Pretending to be nonchalant
Funny girls on the TV shows
Close your eyes and they turn to snow

Be careful how you bend me
Careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me

All the girls working overtime
Telling you everything is fine
All the girls in the beauty shops
Girls' tongues catching the raindrops
All the girls that you'll never see
Forever a mystery
All the girls with their secret ways
All the girls who have gone astray

Be careful how you bend me
Careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me

For all the parents who are losing sleep
For all the babies that won't come to be
For all the reasons that are ours to know
It's my choice and I'm not alone
For every man who's standing next to me
For queer and trans and non-binary
For everybody with their own body
I will meet you all out in the street, so

Be careful how you bend me
Be careful where you send me
Careful how you end me
Be careful with me
Careful how you end me
Be careful how you bend me (Be careful how)
Be careful where you send me (Be careful where)
Be careful
Be careful how you end me
