Femininity Songtext
von Laura Osnes
Femininity Songtext
Why can′t I be the girl that I wanna be?
Why can't I be the girl that I′m not?
Why do men always look as they look when they look at me?
I must have something
But what have I got?
I say I'd like to join the married class
The man says "Yes, my dear"
Then makes another pass
Femininity, femininity
I guess I'm over-blessed with femininity
I want the family life, woman′s career
But all that I get is a pinch on the ear
Femininity, my femininity
Just seems to bring out basic masculinity
There′s only one thing they want and that's understood
I tell them I shouldn′t, they tell me I should
There must be other ways to make a man feel good
All I do is simply stand there
All at once I feel a hand there Begging for my femininity
Femininity, femininity
I wish I'd never heard of femininity
Love has its place, of course, and I′d like my share
But now and then I'd like to come up for air
Sociability, my sociability
Has made each asset seem a liability
I give this man of mine so much delight
We star in a show where each moment is right
But why must every evening be an opening night?
Every time he turns the light off
I keep wishing for a night off
I′m so bored with
What's the good of
How they love my
Femininity
Ooh!
Thank you
