Do you really know me?
Can you really say that?
Do you really know me
For who I really am?

I've heard things you've said about me
That are not really true
So why should you think that I'm that person
When I really wasn't

You say I love my sleep
Getting an early night
You say I love spending
On anything I see

You say I love drawing
Drawing all day long
You say I love staying at home
Just resting my feet

You say I'm girly
I love doing my nails
You say I love my make up
Having my hair down

You say I love cleaning
Tidying up the house
You say I love doing the housework
Like a proper housewife

You say I love going to the gym
Burning my muscles
You say I love champagne
Drinking wine all night long

You say I'm always happy
Because I smile
You say I look fine
Nothing wrong with me

You say I love cooking
Because I made homemade food
You say I prefer to watch TV
Rather than play in the garden

You say a lot of things
That I never said I love doing
You say things that are not true
So why did you say that?

Please don't think what I'm like
Don't think of the things you think I love doing
Don't think or guess because it's not fair
If everyone else gets the wrong idea too

If I tell you what I really am
You'll be surprised
I am not who you thought I am
Apparently

If only you'd listen to the words I say
And ask me nicely if that's what I love doing
Just don't jump into conclusion
And assume that's who I am
