She stands tall and slender like poetry Her eyes hard as steel  Her face a mask of sovereignty  She's seen it all in her industry  Outwardly she appears calm Don't be fooled by her charms  Her mannerisms are her keeping Don't overstep your line.  She's fought a hard battle  Laid claim to the highest throne She's driven out the competition  But now she stands alone At what cost comes success The sacrifice of sanctity  The loss of integrity  A woman fighting in a man's world Play by the rules or risk your dignity The fall from grace will be so steep One she'd rather not see coming So she dances while she can Her ballerinas grace has u enchanted  When the time for the show is over When the curtains r drawn and the lights are dimmer She takes off her mask and weep miserably  She has only loneliness To keep her company

A career woman's company
She stands tall and slender like poetry Her eyes hard as steel  Her face a mask of sovereignty  She's seen it all in her industry  Outwardly she appears calm Don't be fooled by her charms  Her mannerisms are her keeping Don't overstep your line.  She's fought a hard battle  Laid claim to the highest throne She's driven out the competition  But now she stands alone At what cost comes success The sacrifice of sanctity  The loss of integrity  A woman fighting in a man's world Play by the rules or risk your dignity The fall from grace will be so steep One she'd rather not see coming So she dances while she can Her ballerinas grace has u enchanted  When the time for the show is over When the curtains r drawn and the lights are dimmer She takes off her mask and weep miserably  She has only loneliness To keep her company
For the ambitious career woman.
