I’m a female, female agitator Female, female agitator Try to put me in my place Can’t ignore me when I’m in your face Gonna tell you who’s who, that’s that, what’s what Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, stir it up, stir it up They call me a firebrand Never know when I’m gonna show my hand Give me trouble and I’ll show you a fight All right, all right, all right, all right, all right Don’t you take what’s damn well mine Got a problem with me? Honey, get in line How do you spell revolutionary? M-e-e-e-e-e-e
2.
You’re doin’ it now and you’ve done it before I took it once, I can’t take no more All those times, too many to mention Watch out, baby, now you’ve got my attention Why you gotta be so intense? Every action’s got a consequence Did you think you’d get away with it? Did you think that you could never quit? I can’t take anymore It’s time to settle the score Don’t try to test my will I’ve had my fill There you go, now you’re at it again Playing a game that you can’t win Lie to me, baby like I knew you would I’m gonna kick your ass like I know I should Think you’re smart and you’re playin’ it tough I’m here to tell you, honey, I’ve had enough Last night you stepped over the line You’re all done, baby, you’re outta time I can’t take anymore It’s time to settle the score Revenge is a bitter pill And I’ve had my fill What you said and what you meant I know you’re not that innocent Intelligence is what you lack Push me, baby, I’m gonna push you back
3.
All I want is your attention All you give me is contention What’s goin’ on inside your head? It doesn’t have to be bloodshed You won’t stop till you break my heart in two Every kiss a war Baby, whatcha fightin’ for? Every kiss a war I want you, but you want war Why all the hostility? You know this ain’t no rivalry Understanding’s what you lack When you go on the attack My surrender ain’t good enough for you Stab, stab, stab, you’re the killin’ kind Jab, jab, jab, I’m goin’ outta my mind Tell me what you march against Does it come from experience? You gotta bone to pick, well, honey, don’t pick on me
4.
Another day Another surprise Another stranger who can’t look me in the eyes It follows me Wherever I go Been this way every day I can’t take no more I’ve been runnin’ around The lost of the lost and found Won’t stop till I’m in the ground I’m lookin’, I’m lookin’, I’m lookin’ I’m lookin’ up at down Only in my dreams Good things come true Wake up to reality There’s nothin’ I can do Try to make things right I try to even the score I keep runnin’ away But I just get more They say things will change You know that’s a lie Been this way all my life It’s gonna be this way till the day I die
5.
Ask us how we want it Ask us how we want it It doesn’t matter to you It doesn’t matter to you When we say when When we say when It’s just a joke to you It’s just a joke to you You’re gonna feel it Not gonna believe it When the girls are gone Tell us how we’ll get it Tell us how we’ll get it No more love for you No more love for you We’re laughing at you Cuz our shit’s too good for you
6.
Check your watch Cuz it’s time to quit Everything you do It all turns to shit Move over, I’m taking over Move over, nothin’ you can say Move over, I’m taking over Move over, get out of my way You blame me Say it’s not fair Can’t you see that See I don’t care It’s true I don’t need you So let me through My victory Your loss Step aside, baby Cuz I’m the new boss
7.
Those skintight jeans I can’t resist Been that way since we first kissed I got my ride all ready and it goes real fast Roll down the window and hit the gas Let’s get gone Let’s get gone Livin’ on a chain ain’t the way it should be You’re the only one that’s gonna set me free We’re leavin’ now and never comin’ back Well, honey, there’s nothing wrong with that C’mon, baby, whatcha waitin’ for? You drive me crazy, I can’t take no more Do it quick, nothing lasts forever We’re both lost, let’s get lost together Well, what they say, yeah, it’s all true I never want to be without you Time ain’t nothin’, I couldn’t care less Cuz, honey, you’re better than all the rest
8.
What’s in it for me? What’s in it for me? Ain’t your mama never told you Nothin’ is free What’s in it for me? What you got in mind? Don’t mess me around, don’t waste my time What’s in it for me? What you got in store? I’m gonna want that, honey, and a little more What’s in it for me? That’s the way I live What’s in it for me? You’re gonna have to give What’s in it for me? What do I get? Give me nothin’ then nothin’s what you’ll get What’s in it for me? What’s in it for me? I don’t care if you don’t like it That’s how it’s gonna be What’s in it for me? That’s how I feel If you want me, honey, you’ve got to sweeten the deal What’s in it for me? What you got in store? I want that, yeah, and a little more

Makin' Do 01:13
Something just don’t fit Tryin’ to get used to it Saw you in another place Saw you with a different face Yeah, yeah, yeah Did you find someone new? Yeah, yeah, yeah Or are you just makin’ do Arm around your new friend Wine glass in your hand Burned into my memory Adding to my misery Think things will never change Then they get rearranged Ruins my point of view Ruins what I think of you
10.
You don’t love me and that’s just fine But I got a way that we can kill some time I can never hope to be the one you’re lookin’ for But I can be the one you want until you want some more Honey, open up your mind, open up your door Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I can be your best till the best comes around Be your best till the best comes around Be your best till the best comes around Be your best till the best comes around All your friends say I don’t fit their scene Honey, what’s the harm in tryin’ somethin’ in-between? I know you been a-waitin’, a-waitin’ for so long Let me be your baby till the right one comes along To get yourself right, you gotta get a little wrong
11.
Everybody Leaves Wake up to another day You’re still here and you won’t go away Can’t you see what you’re putting me through Now you’re takin’ up my time I’m about to lose my mind Tell me what am I supposed to do? It’s tearin’ me up It’s bringin’ me down Wherever I turn You’re always around Everybody leaves Everybody leaves Everybody leaves Sad but true So why not you? Attention’s what you’re looking for Let me help you find the door So I can end all of this misery Close my eyes, try not to care Open them up and you’re still there Every day is like eternity You say you’re goin’ Yeah, but it’s a trick The sight of you It makes me sick, sick, sick
12.
I go out drinking every night You’re running around with everyone in sight I ain’t too smart, but this I know One of us has got to go I’m content with my black leather You’re a fashion plate, so put together Dartin’ off to another show One of us has got to go When we first met, I thought you were cool You liked that I didn’t play by the rules You invited me over, I went to your house We got it together, sittin’ on your couch Now whenever we meet, we do the dance Is it love or circumstance? I blow my paycheck on the weekend You got more money than you can spend Just cuz you say it don’t make it so One of us has got to go I don’t care what the future brings You’re tellin’ everybody you’re the next big thing That ain’t punk, that ain’t rock ‘n’ roll One of us has got to go
