I am not a pretty girl
that is not what I do
I ain't no damsel in distress
and I don't need to be rescued
so put me down punk, maybe you'd prefer a maiden fair
isn't there a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere
I am not an angry girl, but it seems like I've got everyone fooled
every time I say something they find hard to hear
they chalk it up to my anger, and never to their own fear
and imagine you're a girl, just trying to finally come clean
knowing full well they'd prefer you were dirty and smiling
and I am sorry
I am not a maiden fair
and I am not a kitten stuck up a tree somewhere
and what if there are no damsels in distress
what if I knew that and I called your bluff?
don't you think every kitten figures out how to get down
whether or not you ever show up
that is not what I do
I ain't no damsel in distress
and I don't need to be rescued
