Woman Is Still a Woman

I just want to be a lady
 On Tuesday afternoons
 I just want to be a lady
 On Tuesday afternoons
 Oh how many woods would a wood chuck chuck
 If a wood chuck could chuck wood
 There are some things in your nature
 That can forge your signature
 I've met the girls in boots
 By the dead end of the road
 There comes a point where every king
 Dreams of being exposed
 You can take my word on this
 Cause you know I am a pro
 When all is said and done
 A woman is still a woman
 La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la...
 I know you're from the village
 And I want you to be proud
 But with your new found freedom
 There are some things not allowed
 Liberation was the first step
 But you're old enough to know
 Once you've made it to the field
 The only way's back in the hole
 I've tallied the confessions
 And I've seen what's at the end
 All long to shiver at the mercy
 Of the mighty hand
 It takes a PhD to know
 What apes all understand
 When all is said and done
 A woman is still a woman
 La-la-la-la, La-la-la-la...
 The one who writes the book
 Is the likeliest to fall
 Part of being an adult
 Is the feeling you're a fraud
 Liberation was the first step
 But that too becomes a brand
 No matter where you pledge allegiance
 You'll always be damned
 Now you've shown that you can kill
 Be the peach upon the stem
 Now we've seen you chop the wood
 Leave that shit to someone else
 I just want to be a lady
 On Tuesday afternoons
 But I'm back in office Wednesdays
 Call my secretary to book
 I've met the girls in boots
 By the dead end of the road
 There comes a point where every king
 Dreams of being exposed
 It may take a year or two
 But once you've gotten them unclothed
 When all is said and done
 A woman is still a woman
