[Intro]
Girl power
[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be a boy, I wanna be a girl
I wanna do things that'll make your hair curl
I wanna play with knives, I wanna play with guns
I wanna smash up a place up just for fun
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna go out, I wanna go out
I wanna party (yeah)
And act like a child, and act like a child
If it suits me
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
[Chorus]
Girl power, we glower
Comin' home drunk in the midnight hour (woah)
Girl power, we glower
Might look sweet but we wanna be sour
[Verse 2]
I don't wanna go to, I don't wanna go to college
Don't wanna get a job
Wanna sit 'round the house and act like a slob
I wanna be evil, I wanna be bad
I wanna drive my next-door neighbors mad
[Pre-Chorus]
I wanna go out, I wanna go out
I wanna party (yeah)
And act like a child, and act like a child
If it suits me
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
[Chorus]
Girl power, we glower
Comin' home drunk in the midnight hour (woah)
Girl power, we glower
Might look sweet but we wanna be sour
[Bridge]
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
[Outro]
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
'Cause we've got, 'cause she's got
'Cause we've got girl power (girl power)
