lyrics

I can be like the girls in the videos

Verse 1:
D
It’s great to be
D
A girl today
Bm A D D
There’s no longer just one perfect woman

Just hop online (D)
And search the net (D)
Bm A D D
I’ve every type of role model to choose from
Bm A G A
There’re no boundaries on me

Chorus 1:
D G
I can be like the girls in the videos
D Bm
Smart and funny and weird
D G
Thanks to the girls who’ve paved the way for us
Bm A D
Paved the road to be real

Verse 2:
I like to cook
And keep the house
I’ll bake and sew and maybe take up knitting

But I can paint too
Or lay a floor down
I’ll even try my hand at leaky plumbing

I’m flower child
Meets rock and roll
I’ll hug a tree in my black biker jacket

I’ll wander barefoot
On the beach
Or down the streets of Philly’s central district
No one tells me I can’t be









Chorus 2:
D G
I can be like the girls in the videos
D Bm
Wise and quirky and loud
D G
Thanks to the girls who’ve paved the way for us
Bm A D
Paved the road to be real

Verse 3:
Don’t have to hide
My intellect
My brain is just as sexy as my body

I won’t hold back
When it’s head to head
I’ll beat you at dominion or atari

Bridge:
G Bm F# Bm
Now it’s ok to be a smart girl
F# Bm
A geek girl
F# Bm
A badass
G Bm A D
It’s ok to be a detective
A D
A librarian
A D
That’s pretty badass
G Bm G A7
Set your sights on the woman you want to be…
a fighter, a mom, an inventor, an artist, a witch, a mechanic, a star!

Chorus 3:
D G
I can be like the girls in the videos
D Bm
Beautiful, unique, and strong
D G
Thanks to the girls who’ve paved the way for us
Bm A D
Paved the road to be real

D G
I can be like the girls in the videos
D Bm
Or maybe they’re just like me
D G
Thanks to the girls who’ve paved the way for us
Bm A D
Paved the road to be real
