[Verse 1]
Pretty little child, tell me your tale
How you got the courage to rebel yell
I'm really feeling cheated
Feeble honey, moody cool
How does it work with a queen like you
I'm really feeling heated
Breaking news, I do what I do
We'll keep on trying to play this through

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Pre-Chorus]
Last night you asked me how
I don't wanna keep spelling it out
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm a girl and I play in a band
Can you deal?
I listen to Sabbath

[Instrumental bridge]
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm a girl and I play in a band
Can you deal?
I listen to Sabbath
With all of my friends
Yeah it's real
Strumming guitars so don’t label or package me please
You know that it’s me, who else could I be?
Don't you see?
