"Just a Girl" - No Doubt (Lyrics)

Take this pink ribbon off my eyes,
I'm exposed
And it's no big surprise.
Don't you think I know
Exactly where I stand,
This world is forcing me
To hold your hand.

'Cause I'm just a girl, little 'ol me
Don't let me out of your sight.
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite
So don't let me have any rights.
Oh...I've had it up to here!

The moment that I step outside
So many reasons
For me to run and hide
I can't do the little things I hold so dear
'Cause it's all those little things
That I fear

'Cause I'm just a girl I'd rather not be
'Cause they won't let me drive late at night.
I'm just a girl,
Guess I'm some kind of freak
'Cause they all sit and stare
With their eyes.
I'm just a girl,
Take a good look at me
Just your typical prototype

Oh...I've had it up to here!
Oh...am I making myself clear?

I'm just a girl...
I'm just a girl in the world...
That's all that you'll let me be!

I'm just a girl, living in captivity
Your rule of thumb
Makes me worry some,
I'm just a girl, what's my destiny?
What I've succumbed to Is making me numb.
I'm just a girl, my apologies
What I've become is so burdensome,
I'm just a girl, lucky me
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison.

Oh...I've had it up to..
Oh...I've had it up to...
Oh...I've had it up to here!
