I'm Really The Kind Songtext / Lyric

I'm really the kind to dazzle and twirl

Have tantrums like silver slanting rain

Walk up to strangers

Parade with my pride

And stride like a lion up

A mad mountainside

So steep, so lovely

Don't think about the fall



Then suddenly, no warning

No nothing, I'm small

I'm small

Smaller than anyone, smaller than you



You see, I'm really the kind

To cower in the corner

And pray that some guy

Will have a kind word to say






Then be tiny in his arms

And be stroked to my heart

And coaxed and caressed

And combed and undressed

Then finally I'll trust him

Abandon it all



Then suddenly, no warning

No nothing, I'm too tall

I'm tall, taller than anyone

Taller than boys

I'm tall, taller than anyone

Taller than you



The pendulum swings both ways

And I lose my equilibrium

I swing so fast inside it's motion

That I become the hum

I become the hum



You see I'm really the kind

To walk the avenues

And criticize the mannequins

And ogle the jewels



Justify spending the cash

I don't have

Break resolutions

With a naughty little laugh



I'm nothing unless

I'm the belle of the ball

And then suddenly

No warning, no nothing

I've got it all, I see it all

I have it all, I have it all

It is, it is, it is, it is



It is, my soul, my soul
