Chorus:
Should I wear my hair in a ponytail?
Should I dress myself up in Chanel?
Do I measure me by what you think?
Absolutely not, absolutely not
If I go to work in a mini-skirt
Am I givin' you the right to flirt?
I won't compromise my point of view
Absolutely not, absolutely not
Always waitin' for someone
To make me happy, pick me up
I realize that someone is me
You call life, that ain't livin', oh
Bless the child that's got his own
It's my season now I stand alone
Just thought that I would let you know
Some things you just can't control, no, no
Chorus
Told myself I won't complain
But some things have got to change
Not gon' be a victim
Of all your social push and shove
Right or wrong, you judge the same
My picture never fit your frame
What you thought, you'll never know
You can't see me with your mind closed
Should I wear my hair in a ponytail? (no, no, no, no, no)
Should I dress myself up in Chanel?
Do I measure me by what you think?
Absolutely not, absolutely not
If I go to work in a mini-skirt
Am I givin' you the right to flirt?
I won't compromise my point of view
Absolutely not
Now I see the life means more to me
More than fancy clothes
More than you'll ever know (more than you'll ever know)
All the ugly words that I heard you say
Made me stronger everyday
Now I live my life for me, oh
If I go to work in a mini-skirt
Am I givin' you the right to flirt?
I won't compromise my point of view
Absolutely, absolutely not
Chorus
Should I wear my hair in a ponytail? (woah, ooh, oh)
Should I dress myself up in Chanel? (woah, ooh, oh)
Do I measure me by what you think? (oh, oh)
Absolutely not (oh, oh)
All my ladies say
Woah, ooh, oh
All my ladies say
Woah, ooh, oh
All my ladies say
Oh, oh
All my ladies say
Oh, oh
Absolutely not, oh
Should I wear my hair in a ponytail?
Should I dress myself up in Chanel?
Do I measure me by what you think?
Absolutely not, absolutely not
If I go to work in a mini-skirt
Am I givin' you the right to flirt?
I won't compromise my point of view
Absolutely not, absolutely not
Always waitin' for someone
To make me happy, pick me up
I realize that someone is me
You call life, that ain't livin', oh
Bless the child that's got his own
It's my season now I stand alone
Just thought that I would let you know
Some things you just can't control, no, no
