Lyrics

Too Bad

Everyone expects so much,
They're all wanting things from me.
Nowadays it's hard to grow up,
And make everything look so easy.

Well, when I hit the ground,
I'm going to take off running - freedom!
Spellbound, you'll never see it coming.

I'm tired of being a good girl,
And doing everything you tell me to.
I'm gonna take my wrath out on the world
With all these feelings that you misconstrue.
And it's not what you'd expect from me, and you're mad.
This is not what you want from me - too bad.

I am so far from myself
Because I'm trying to be right for you.
You better believe I'm going to rebel
Now that I've found my point of view.

I'm going to tell you exactly how I'm dealing.
I'm not going to hear about exactly how you're feeling now.

I'm tired of being a good girl,
And doing everything you tell me to.
I'm gonna take my wrath out on the world
With all these feelings that you misconstrue.
And it's not what you'd expect from me, and you're mad.
This is not what you want from me - too bad.

I am shy.
I am wild.
I am bitter, I am boring.
I am happy.
I am down.
Most say I'm worth ignoring.
I am complicated, I am PG-rated.
I'm so easy to understand.
But I am not, I am not, I am not, I am not,
I am not what you think I am.

I'm tired of being a good girl,
And doing everything you tell me to.
I'm gonna take my wrath out on the world
With all these feelings that you misconstrue.
And it's not what you'd expect from me, and you're mad.
If this is not what you want from me - too bad
Too bad, too bad, too bad, too bad, too bad.
