like other girls - paul gordon lyrics

Loading...

i am in a foreign world
they speak a language of their own
nobody knows where i have come from, daddy
i can’t help but feel alone

i am in a foreign world
i am different, i am strange
i know that i should try to fit in somehow
but i don’t think can change

and i know you won’t believe it
but i just wanna be like other girls
wear fancy shoes like other girls
write a literary masterpiece
for scholars to peruse…
like other girls

sallie mcbride is my best friend
i told her that my folks had died
cause i can’t tell her where i come from, daddy
is that the same as having lied?

for i have shut out the remembrance
cause i just wanna be like other girls
make lemon pies like other girls
cure disease and write a symphony
and win the nobel prize!
like other girls

[jerusha abbott]
i bought an evening dress
oh, glory be!

[jervis pendleton]
you can’t imagine how it feels

[jerusha abbott]
you can’t imagine how it feels
dressed in gingham all your life

[jervis pendleton]
oh, glory be!

[jerusha abbott]
wearing hand-me-downs
from girls who didn’t like you

[jervis pendleton]
it takes it toll

[jerusha abbott]
it takes it toll
the bitterness of wearing your enemies’ clothes

[both]
eats into your soul

[jerusha abbott]
i am in a foreign world

[jervis pendleton]
i am in a foreign world

[jerusha abbott]
i am different, i am strange

[jervis pendleton]
i know i should try to be
more like those girls

[jerusha abbott]
i know that i should try to fit in somehow

[both]
but i don’t think that i can change

[jerusha abbott]
and i know you won’t believe it
but i just wanna be like other girls
get all dressed up like other girls
become a scientist, a motorist
a suffragette, a methodist
a fabian, a freudian
the cl-ss valedictorian

or what else
heaven knows
like other girls
like other girls

[jervis pendleton]
to be as sweet
to be as loved

[both]
like other girls
