"Good Girls"

Little girl, little town, little left to say
Hard enough to get out, much less get away
Speak your mind if you dare to be heard
I warn you, I'm very daring with words

I was wild and untamed, on the hunt for myself
Got your claws in my mane, as if I need help
Made my mask, made my dress
Did your best to make me
You came first, now at last
Hear what I heard you say

(You want me) you want me
(To believe) to believe
That if you wanna stick around
You better settle down, stay in one place
Don't you mess around, and wear a little blush on your face
Be a good girl, good girls are what we need

Wear it if you can, take it like a man
Remember your place
Get your diamond ring, don't say a thing
A lady has grace
And good girls, good girls are what we need
Well, get your good girls and get the hell away from me

Stake your claim, your possession, all over me
Make your aim my obsession, till what you want I need
Bind my feet, cut my hair
Tell me who you think I should be
Gotten used to thin air, but someday you're gonna see me

(You want me) you want me
(To believe) to believe
That if you wanna stick around
You better settle down, stay in one place
Don't you mess around, and wear a little blush on your face
And be a good girl, good girls are what we need

Wear it if you can, take it like a man
Remember your place
Get your diamond ring, don't say a thing
A lady has grace
And good girls, good girls are what we need
Well, get your good girls and get the hell away from me

Whisper to me, just wait and you will see
Things are changing so quickly
I give up, I give out and I'm down on my knees
And you smile as you say finally, I know what you need, yeah
You are the same thing, just give it changing
You're the good girl, what does that mean?
You're the good girl, what does that mean?

Dare you, be strong, dare you
Dare you, live long, dare you
Dare you, be proud, dare you
Dare you, live loud, dare you, oh
Good girl
