You think i wouldn't have him
Unless i could have him by the balls
You think i just dish it out
You don't think i take it at all

You think i am stronger
You think i walk taller than the rest
You think i'm usually wearing the pants
Just 'cause i rarely wear a dress, well

When you look at me
You see my purpose, you see my pride
You think i just saddle up my anger
And ride, ride, ride

You think i stand so firm
You think i sit so high on my trusty steed
Let me tell you i'm usually face down on the ground
Whenever there's a stampede

I'm no heroine
At least, not last time i checked
I'm too easy to roll over
I'm too easy to wreck

I just write about what i should have done
I just sing what i wish i could say
And hope someone, some woman hears my music
And it helps her through her day

'cause some guy designed
These shoes i use to walk around
Some big man's business turns a profit
Every time i lay my money down

Some guy designed the room i'm standing in
Another one's built it with his own tools
Who says i like right angles?
These are not my laws, there are not my rules

I'm no heroine
I still answer to the other half of the race
I don't fool myself like i fooled you
I don't have the power we just don't run this place
