measure of me

the boy he thinks i’m damaged goods.
i know he does and i guess he should.
i dress like him, i take him down.
he gets embarrassed when his friends come around.

i want to take him to the show,
i’m crossing over what you know.
is it the boy you need in me,
or the girl that you could be?

come on now social, i want you to be.
come on now graceful,
i want you to be.
come on now special,
I want you to be.
I want you.

and so this is the measure of me,
even though it shouldn't be.
the lion lays down with the lamb.
i can't do it, so i ain't worth a damn.

come on now social,
i want you to be.
come on now graceful,
i want you to be,
come on now special,
i want you to be.
come on now social,
i want you to be.
