When I was a small child I was no lady fair and mild I was the princess of the wild As by tree climbing I was beguiled I didn't like pink princess sets Sports were something I couldn't get I climbed everywhere, even playgrounds that were wet And I loved proving kids wrong on a bet As I grew into the girl I became Some things changed, some stayed the same I love all sorts of clothes, made for both gents and dames And my boyish reaction to crushes is still my bane

When I was a small child I was no lady fair and mild I was the princess of the wild As by tree climbing I was beguiled I didn't like pink princess sets Sports were something I couldn't get I climbed everywhere, even playgrounds that were wet And I loved proving kids wrong on a bet As I grew into the girl I became Some things changed, some stayed the same I love all sorts of clothes, made for both gents and dames And my boyish reaction to crushes is still my bane
Some girls rub a guy's arm. I fold an origami swan, try to secretly drop it in his backpack, and walk out of the classroom with the bell without checking to see wether I was successful or not.
