"Got My Own Thing" lyrics - LIZ PHAIR

I've got my own thing
Feel it, it is strong
As short as people think
But, really, it is long

I don't have to wait for a miracle
They say I'm pretty as a song
I don't have to save for a rainy day
I know that something comes along, it always comes along

Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Boy, I do

I've got my own thing
Feel it in a room
Everybody changed
When I do what I do 'cause I do what I do

I don't have to say what I'm thinking, 'cause
Everyone's radio is on, and they've heard my latest song
Don't have to stand there with a drink because
They say that we would get along, so let's just get along

Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Boy, I do

I know you're not like other guys
I don't expect you to normalize
I won't get into what you do
Because I'm bettin', bettin', bettin', bettin', bettin' all my money on you

Don't have to wait for a miracle
They say I'm pretty as a song, they've heard my latest song
You don't have to stand there with a drink because
I know that we would get along, so let's just get along

Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And watch the silly things you do
Ooh, boy, I'd love to help give you enough rope to hang yourself
And I hope you're swingin' this way, too
Boy, I do

Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
Pretty girl, there she goes
