Confessions of a Teenage Girl

Bonnie McKee

I'm just a girl
With good intentions
I don't cry
To get attention
Most of the time...

I'm just a girl
I do some damage
I use my gender
To my advantage
Is this a crime?!

If there is a time I ever need an alibi
I don't have to try
It's built in
It comes with the package!

Along with sugar and spice
And everything nice
The power I possess to entice
It's built in
It comes with the package!

That's why I love being a teenage girl
Feeling to find where I fit in the world
I'm in bloom! I'm in bloom!
And if ever I'm caught
Doing what I should not
They'll assume
I'm an innocent girl

I'm just a girl
I keep my promise
I won't bite
Completely harmless
Most of the time...

I'm just a girl
My wrath is tender
Bat my eyes
And they surrender
Is this a crime?!

If there is a time I ever need an alibi
I don't have to try
It's built in
It comes with the package!

Along with sugar and spice
And everything nice
The power I possess to entice
It's built in
It comes with the package!

That's why I love being a teenage girl
Feeling to find where I fit in the world
I'm in bloom! I'm in bloom!
And if ever I'm caught
Doing what I should not
They'll assume
I'm an innocent girl
