Madonna — What It Feels Like for a Girl

[Spoken Sample: Charlotte Gainsbourg] Girls can wear jeans And cut their hair short Wear shirts and boots Because it's OK to be a boy But for a boy to look like a girl is degrading 'Cause you think that being a girl is degrading But secretly you'd love to know what it's like Wouldn't you? What it feels like for a girl [Verse 1: Madonna] Silky smooth Lips as sweet as candy, baby Tight blue jeans Skin that shows in patches [Pre-Chorus: Madonna] Strong inside, but you don't know it Good little girls, they never show it When you open up your mouth to speak Could you be a little weak? [Chorus: Madonna] Do you know what it feels like for a girl? Do you know what it feels like in this world For a girl? [Verse 2: Madonna] Hair that twirls on finger tips so gently, baby Hands that rest on jutting hips, repenting [Pre-Chorus: Madonna] Hurt that's not supposed to show And tears that fall when no one knows When you're trying hard to be your best Could you be a little less? [Chorus: Madonna] Do you know what it feels like for a girl? Do you know what it feels like in this world For a girl? Do you know what it feels like for a girl? Do you know what it feels like in this world What it feels like for a girl? [Pre-Chorus: Madonna] Strong inside, but you don't know it Good little girls, they never show it When you open up your mouth to speak Could you be a little weak? [Chorus: Madonna] Do you know what it feels like for a girl? Do you know what it feels like in this world For a girl? Do you know what it feels like for a girl? Do you know what it feels like in this world? [Outro: Madonna] For a girl In this world Do you know Do you know Do you know what it feels like for a girl? What it feels like in this world?
