girl dirty knowing
I am not an angry girl, but it seems I've got everyone fooled. Every time I say something they find hard to hear, they chalk it up to my anger and not to their own fear. Imagine you're a girl just trying to finally come clean, knowing full well they prefer you dirty and smiling.
inspirational girl joy
i do it for the joy it brings because i'm a joyful girl because the world owes me nothing and we owe each other the world
girl teenage writing
I basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing 'chick' music for teenage girls or something. I think, if anything, the press kind of, because of my gender and my age, tends to kind of relegate my work to this sort of special-interest group. It's part of the cultural dynamic, I guess.
girl ambition eye
Squint your eyes and look closer I'm not between you and your ambition I am a poster girl with no poster I am thirty-two flavors and then some And I'm beyond your peripheral vision So you might want to turn your head Cause someday you might find you're starving and eating all of the words you said.
girl lying eye
For every hand extended another lies in wait. Keep your eye on that one girl...anticipate.
girl eye hatred
and god help you if you are an ugly girl course too pretty is also your doom cause everyone harbors a secret hatred for the prettiest girl in the room and god help you if you are a pheonix and you dare to rise up from the ash a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying back
girl pretty-girl want
I am not a pretty girl. I don't want to be a pretty girl. No, I want to be more than a pretty girl.
girl dirty knowing
Imagine you're a girl, just trying to finally come clean, knowing full well they'd prefer you were dirty and smiling.
girl philosophy blood
I'm the color me happy girl, Miss live and let live. And when they're out for blood, I always give.
girl cutting games
When I was like sixteen, I was a total chick I had big hair. I was seen as this attractive girl, and I would get all this attention. And then I just cut off my hair, and I quit playing that game.
girl wise wise-women
We are wise, wise women. We are giggling girls.
girl powerful warrior
I'm an all powerful amazon warrior, not just some sniveling girl.
girl fashion thinking
A lot of women these days, a lot of young women don't want to call themselves feminists. You have this cheap, hideous 'girl power' sort of fad, which I think is pretty benign at best, but at worst, I think it's a way of taking the politics out of feminism and making it some kind of fashion.
girl doom-and-gloom hatred
God forbid you be an ugly girl, 'course too pretty is also your doom, 'cause everyone harbors a secret hatred for the prettiest girl in the room.
