I am a woman of heart and mind

 

With time on her hands

 

No child to raise

 

You come to me like a little boy

 

And I give you my scorn and my praise

 

You think I'm like your mother

 

Or another lover or your sister

 

Or the queen of your dreams

 

Or just another silly girl

 

When love makes a fool of me

 

After the rush when you come back down

 

You're always disappointed

 

Nothing seems to keep you high

 

Drive your bargains

Push your papers

Win your medals

F**k your strangers

Don't it leave you on the empty side

 

I'm looking for affection and respect

 

A little passion

 

And you want stimulation nothing more

 

That's what I think

 

But you know I'll try to be there for you

 

When your spirits start to sink

 

All this talk about holiness now

 

It must be the start of the latest style

 

Is it all books and words

 

Or do you really feel it

Do you really laugh

Do you really care

Do you really smile

 

When you smile

 

You criticize and you flatter

 

You imitate the best

 

And the rest you memorize

 

You know the times you impress me most

 

Are the times when you don't try

 

When you don't even try
