BIG GIRLS
(words & music by Natalie Merchant)
Always thought the game came easy,
you never thought about it twice.
Your luck was leaving, so, you just threw the dice
and time was on your side.
Time, was always on your side.
But times got tough and life got even.
So, you told yourself some lies.
And now you truly do believe that
there’s only one way to survive: you hold on to your pride.
Big girls, they don’t cry,
heart of stone, gone cold as ice.
They close the door, they keep it all inside.
You trusted love but love’s deceiving.
Now you know that it’s unfair, you know love is so unfair.
But it hurts the worst, believe me,
when you show them that you care; so, never show that you care.
Big girls, they don’t cry;
heart of stone, gone cold as ice.
They close the door, they keep it all inside.
Know when to hide, know when to fight.
Tell the lies, that’s how they survive.
Don’t let them see, don’t give yourself away.
Hold on, hold on!
Keep your head girl, there’s so much more at stake.
Hold on, hold on!
You took a hit and the ship is going down.
Hold on, hold on!
A spark is lit and the fire is spreading fast.
Hold on, hold on!
See clouds are bursting and the water’s rising fast.
Hold on, hold on!
Stop the wrecking ball or the walls are coming down.
Hold on, hold on!
