Not to sound cynical but --
the modern woman is saying...
it's just a matter of time...
before the new guy in my life's gonna go  
yeah, he's gonna stray--
She says...
"Wow, if I had a dime is all I have to say...
What does the modern woman have to do?
Turn icy?
Turn into an ocean that's frozen blue"
She says...
"We can't turn into glass..
we'll just end up shattered n' broken
crying on our *** "
(even though they like us all soft -- and, warm)
with adoring eyes that flash up at them
saying,  "I love you Baby-Baby-Baby, over n over again..."
n' She says,
"Then they wonder why
we don't put up with their bullshi* n' all their lies..."
She says,
Let me tell you a little secret about the modern woman...
she's smart, independent, n' wise.
Yeah..
She's burned out of the megalomaniac guys
She hopes you like hoops...
cause she has a lot of ropes -- with complicated hoops...
that you get to jump on through
to prove that it's worth her time
for her to even be with you
She says,
"I hope you can run fast -- n' that you like the chase...
cause baby, baby -- you're in for one hell of a race."

She'll move on -- yeah, she'll be long gone
if you've done her wrong...

Because she owns her time...
she owns
her own dimes...
she knows her worth...
She's knows that she's a beautiful Goddess..
that lives with Joy as she walks this Earth.
