Otep - UR A WMN NOW lyrics
rate me<BR>
Stars litter the sky<br>
The moon is shining high<br>
<br>
This soft, September night<br>
Two lovers creep out of sight<br>
<br>
A maiden dressed in white<br>
With copper hair<br>
<br>
Restless for adventure<br>
She don't care<br>
<br>
That the wolf is in disguise<br>
She's been ensnared<br>
<br>
He got the devil in his eyes<br>
& stylish flair<br>
<br>
He shoves her to the ground<br>
Her soul begins to drown<br>
<br>
A sky full of eyes where the stars should be<br>
A sky full of eyes watching silently<br>
<br>
You're a woman now<br>
You've become a women now<br>
<br>
The weight of the cradle has broken the bough<br>
You've become a woman now<br>
<br>
Mama woke me up at dawn<br>
She helped me get my best dress on<br>
<br>
She braided flowers in my hair<br>
So sweet was the summer air<br>
<br>
I'm to meet my groom down by the sea<br>
A perfect stranger to correct me<br>
<br>
The judges arrive in pairs of 3<br>
Don't be scared, just relax & breathe<br>
<br>
Good girls hold real still<br>
Surrender your free will<br>
<br>
They cracked the crown<br>
To pluck the pearl<br>
<br>
Here, on the jagged edge<br>
Of the world<br>
<br>
You're a woman now<br>
You've become a woman now<br>
<br>
The weight of the cradle has broken the bough<br>
You've become a woman now<br>
<br>
Standing on the welfare line<br>
My daughter clinging to my side<br>
<br>
I see the faith in her eyes<br>
I whisper, baby we will be fine<br>
<br>
I'll get a good job<br>
& we'll find a new place<br>
<br>
I'll work real hard<br>
& we'll make our escape<br>
<br>
I promise you I will get us through<br>
Together we will bloom<br>
<br>
You're a woman now<br>
You've become a woman now<br>
<br>
The weight of the cradle has broken the bough<br>
You've become a woman now<br>
<br>
You're a woman now<br>
You're a woman now<br>
You're a woman now<br>
<BR><BR>
