Seem like everywhere I go
Everybody wanna know
Whatâ??s it like to be a girl

In the music world

The scene is so sexist

Believe me I get it
We'd probably sell more records if I flaunted my $$# and chest
But forget it

I work like one of the boys
And Iâ??m as true as they get
But Iâ??m a lady through and through

Like give me some credit
I knew Iâ??d regret it if I tried to blend in and pretend
Be something other than I am

Like have you noticed Iâ??m a woman
Didnâ??t come to downplay it
Or to play it up either

And Iâ??m not trying pick a fight or be nobody's leader
But it feels like everybodyâ??s just a little too interested
In the fact that females can indeed make music

Our interviews, our bios
They all make it a point
Female Fronted Band, from Decatur, Illinois

And just once
Iâ??d like to see some other bandâ??s resume
Go out of their way to say theyâ??re fronted by a male ok

And while weâ??re on it, let me say
Women donâ??t all sound the same
Who gave us the idea that

"Female Fronted� is a genre anyway

Seem like everywhere I go

Everybody wanna know
Whatâ??s it like to be a girl
In the music world

Wanna make it disappear
Tell 'em what they wanna hear,
If truth ain't pretty will you all stay with me

Will you love me
Love me ugly


And I know itâ??s not fair
And I canâ??t complain
Cuz with girl in our band

People donâ??t look away
But you know what
It feels like they look just a little too long

Stare me up and down
Forget to listen to the song
I take the stage

And before I even open my mouth
The audience $$#umes that they got us all figured out
Oh your bandâ??s got a chick

Must be some kinda trick
Thereâ??s no way she got this far without sucking somebody's
Did you really think thatâ??s how it works

Iâ??m not $#&@ing eye candy
Iâ??m here to do my job
Iâ??ll be the last man standing

Boys in crowd asking
For me to flash them
Well here you go, news flash:

Youâ??re ignorant and thatâ??s that
I bet youâ??d never say that to your little sister
The mediaâ??s got you all jacked up, little mister

Cuz girls in my position can perpetuate the cycle
Walking a tightrope
Donâ??t know which way to go

Hypersexualize or downplay your femininity
Dress like the dudes
Or pray to God that youâ??re pretty

Are you kidding me
And I donâ??t even know whoâ??s to blame
Beauty sells, I buy it too

Iâ??m trying to sell it back it you

Seem like everywhere I go
Everybody wanna know
Whatâ??s it like to be a girl

In the music world
Wanna make it disappear
Tell 'em what they wanna hear
If truth ain't pretty will you all stay with me
Will you love me

Love me ugly

So tell me
What's a woman to do
No scratch that

Tell me whatâ??s a human being to do with the fact that
What gets us ahead just holds us back more
Is a level playing field too much to ask for
And I know that by saying it
I'm bringing attention

To an issue that might be better left unmentioned
But someone's gotta say it
Gotta call out the scene
The scene is obscene
My sanity's split at the seams
So to all of yaâ??ll making this just about $$# and tits

Here to set the record straight
It donâ??t gotta be this way
We can change the game
Rearrange the way to fame
And make a bigger deal about the talent than the face
See I got little girls watching me
Wanting to be like me

And i wanna show them that they donâ??t
Gotta be like me
They can do their own thing
They can rewrite the rules
They can get respect without acting like fools
So lets not make it harder than it has to be
Iâ??ll keep making music

You stop asking me
Whatâ??s it like to be a girl in the entertainment world
Cuz now you know

Seem like everywhere I go
Everybody wanna know
Whatâ??s it like to be a girl

In the music world
Wanna make it disappear
Tell 'em what they wanna hear,
If truth ain't pretty will you all stay with me
Will you love me
Love me ugly
