Indigo Girls Measure Of Me Lyrics

Measure Of Me Lyrics

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

i can get the girl
but the boys just laugh
i can get the girls
but the boys just laugh 

so this is a measure of me
even though it shouldn`t be
the lion lays down with the lamb
but i can`t do it so i ain`t worth a damn 

i can get the girls
but the boys just laugh
i can get the girls
but the boys just laugh at me 

come on now graceful
i want you to be
come on now social
i said i want you to be
come on now special
i i want you to be
i want you to be 

i the virgin in the woods
tell me now if they are good 

is it the boys who needed me
i am you and you set it free 

i get the girls
but the boys just laugh
i get the girl
but the boys he laughs at me 

i said this is the measure of me
and even though it shouldn`t be
the lion lays down with the lamb
yeah but i can`t do it and i ain`t worth a damn
