Now as Then

I am exceptional

I am an exception

I am the exception

That's for me, that's also for me

I am a contradiction

I'm fascinating

Not enough, too much

Tell me I'm special

They might look like me but they don't know

Man, I wanna take you home

Oh, the relaxation I feel here

Oh, the relaxation I feel most everywhere

Except the places I don't go

Except the places I don't go

Oh, don't trust me

That I won't take all the money and run

Don't trust me

That I won't take all the money and run

Oh, I'm just a shell of myself

I might just take all the money and run

I don't wanna be a woman if it's permission

Like it's permission

Now as then

I know then as now, oh

Now as then

I know then as now, oh

I know I'm not to be trusted

She had this thing with her shoulders

Couldn't sleep on either side

Face-up to the ceiling, nowhere to hide

Oh, she has this thing with her shoulders

Can't sleep on either side

Face-up to the ceiling, nowhere to hide

Oh, she is speaking to me, speaking right to me

They're all speaking right to me, speaking my language

It's all in my language,

a universal language, and I am loved, I am loved

I am loved in every single tongue

Oh, don't trust me

That I won't take all the money and run

Don't trust me

That I won't take all the money and run

Now I'm a blank, I'm drawing a blank

I might just take all the money and run

I don't wanna be a woman

If it means not being human
