No Doubt  - "Just A Girl"

Take this pink ribbon off my eyes 
I'm exposed 
And it's no big surprise 
Don't you think I know 
Exactly where I stand 
This world is forcing me 
To hold your hand 
'Cause I'm just a girl, little 'ol me 
Don't let me out of your sight 
I'm just a girl, all pretty and petite 
So don't let me have any rights 

Oh...I've had it up to here! 
The moment that I step outside 
So many reasons 
For me to run and hide 
I can't do the little things I hold so dear 
'Cause it's all those little things 
That I fear 

'Cause I'm just a girl I'd rather not be 
'Cause they won't let me drive 
Late at night I'm just a girl, 
Guess I'm some kind of freak 
'Cause they all sit and stare
With their eyes 

I'm just a girl, 
Take a good look at me 
Just your typical prototype 

Oh...I've had it up to here! 
Oh...am I making myself clear? 
I'm just a girl 
I'm just a girl in the world... 
That's all that you'll let me be! 
I'm just a girl, living in captivity 
Your rule of thumb 
Makes me worry some 

I'm just a girl, what's my destiny? 
What I've succumbed to Is making me numb 
I'm just a girl, my apologies 
What I've become is so burdensome
I'm just a girl, lucky me 
Twiddle-dum there's no comparison 

Oh...I've had it up to here!


The Avett Brothers - "When I Drink"

When I drink 
I say things I don't want to say 
I do things I don't wanna do 
I talk mean to you 
But if I think 
I just might get something out of this 
My parents taught me to learn when I miss 
Just do your best 
Just do your best 

It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity 
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be 
At least a little better than I've been so far 

But when I drink 
I hear things that aren't really there 
I feel things when I shouldn't really care 
Have fist fights with the air 
But if I think about someone besides myself 
I lived through the silver and the bell 
With something to tell 
Just do your best 

It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity 
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be 
At least a little better than I've been so far 

But when I drink 
I spend the next morning in a haze 
But we only get so many days 
Now I have one less 
Just do your best 

It's the only way to keep that last bit of sanity 
Maybe I don't have to be good but I can try to be 
At least a little better than I've been so far 
Oh, at least a little better than I've been so far
