Pointer Sisters, The – My Life

Now’s the time

to lay it on the line, boy

you better believe it

You had your chance

to break it down and dance

but you blew it

by trying to tell me how to

run my life

Look at me

just sit down and think it over

can’t you see

that I wasn’t born yesterday

working girl

in a world full of confusion

far too cool

to be taken for a fool

This is my life

and I’m livin’ like I’m walkin’

crazy high life

so you better learn how to play

doin’ that fast life

got you going ’round in circles

this is my life

and I’m calling all the shots this time

Boys like you

I know the way you do

waiting something for nothing

all talk, no work

go ahead and do the jerk

’cause you blew it

you’ll never hold me with your gangster love

Look at me

it should be so elementary

can’t you see

you know that I’m no stranger to the street

mama said

in a world full of confusion

take control

you were never born to lose
