Lyrics
My mom wanted a princess
My dad wanted a boy
I was neither of
So I went to Illinois
But being a funny smartass
Was kind of my thing
Nobody dared to ask
What my future might bring
When I was a little girl
I tried to be myself
I didn't know what to do
Without the books on my shelf
There were unicorns and dragons
But no answers for me
When I was a little girl
I just tried to be me
When I went to school
Didn't have a lot of friends
I was never cool
Never had the chance
But being a funny smartass
Was kind of my thing
Nobody dared to ask
What my future might bring
When I was a little girl
I tried to be myself
I didn't know what to do
Without the books on my shelf
There were unicorns and dragons
But no answers for me
When I was a little girl
I just tried to be me
Don't cry 'cause you're the outcast
Like all things it won't last
Celebrate your power
Don't settle for the dark hour
Keep on searching for your tribe
They will finally share your vibe
All you have to know
There's always time to grow
When I was a little girl
I tried to be myself
I didn't know what to do
Without the books on my shelf
There were unicorns and dragons
But no answers for me
When I was a little girl
I just tried to be me
When I was a little girl
I tried to be myself
I didn't know what to do
Without the books on my shelf
There were unicorns and dragons
But no answers for me
When I was a little girl
I just tried to be me
When I was a little girl
I tried to be myself
I didn't know what to do
Without the books on my shelf
There were unicorns and dragons
But no answers for me
When I was a little girl
I just tried to be me
