I found that I wanted to, I was angry with the music industry
because it all seemed to be about ooh baby
[G] and people singing songs that they didn't really mean
and I was kind of annoyed that that seemed to be what you had to do
and also you had to pout a lot or wear push up bras
and you had to be attractive so I put on these really geeky glasses
at the time it was pretty geeky for a girl to wear glasses
and I put on plastic curls and I made this skirt
and I sewed plastic roses onto it and I _ wore a big trench coat
and every picture that I had taken I would sort of do this and that
and I wasn't going to sell myself as a female focal point
I wasn't doing that, I wasn't playing that game
I was determined, I was a welder's daughter
and you were going to take me as an [N] equal or not
