Intro open A

                                                         
You're mother told you things about the world that weren't true but it's all 

right.

                                                           
You choose your battles well, cause you pick all the battles they refuse to 

fight. 

                                                                  
You're just a little girl you shouldn't ask so many questions, all right?
                                                              
Yeah for just a little girl, you've got a nasty little big girl appetite.

                                                              
I don't wanna tell you what I want, just wanna wait for what you do.

                                                                   
You can watch me if you want, cause baby you know I've been watching you.


Ever since your cigarette burned down to your fingernail, and dropped 
              
against your shoe.
                                             
Yeah you're just a little girl, I like those silly little girly things you 

do.

                                                          
Just put your number in my pocket, and I'll wait for you to call.
                                                   
You can't walk all over me until you've learned to crawl.
                                                                    
You're such a pretty little thing, I hope you find a pretty place to fall.
                    
You're a modern female.
                    
You're a modern female.
                     
You're a modern female.

You're a woman of today, you get your way by throwing tantrums on the floor.
I know your struggle baby, it's Madonna and the whore in tug o' war.
