You can't tell me what to say, can't tell me what to do
I don't have to take no shit from macho pigs and fools.
Won't play dumb or shut my mouth to boost your small ego.
It's a new century by now you all should know.
CHORUS:
'Cuz I'm a Modern Girl
And I'm ready to go
I'm a Modern Girl
I'll take over the world!
You say I hold the movement back with make-up on my face.
You say that I am not allowed to wear bras or to shave.
If that is what some girls here want, then that is up to you,
but it's my body, it's my mind, and it's my choice to choose!
CHORUS: ( X2 )
'Cuz I'm a Modern Girl
And I'm ready to go
I'm a Modern Girl
I'll take over the world!
