Self-contained
And self-content
No promises to keep
I've got things so together
That I just can't fall asleep
Walked the night
And drank the moon
Got home at half past four
And I knew that no one marked my time
As I unlocked my door
It's really lovely to discover
That you like to be alone
Not to owe your man an answer
When he rings the bedroom phone
Not to share a pair of pork chops
When you crave champagne and cheese
And your aim becomes to please yourself
And not to aim to please
Oh, he sold me
When he told me
"Two can live as cheap as one"
But I'm learning
Twice your earning
Doesn't mean it's twice the fun
If you spend each dime
And all your time
On someone else's schemes
Now I'm needy
So I'm greedy
And I live my deepest dreams
Take an hour
In the shower
Use the water while it's hot
In the tub
A hand to scrub my back
Is all I haven't got
Self-aware
With self-esteem
No lemon
In my lime
I take the day for quite a ride
And I take my own sweet time
Time to spare
And time to share
And grateful I would be
If just one damn man
Would share the need
To be alone with me
