Chivalry is dead they say

Well that's okay with me

Things wouldn't have worked out that way

I am nobody's thing

I do not tolerate frailty

Especially not in myself

I'm not some simple, fragile being

I need nobody's help

I do need some special treatment

Just because I am a girl

I won't be a doll in a convent

I won't give homemaking a whirl

I want to be able

To re-write the fables

And prove all the nay Sayers wrong

I'm a loud, outgoing, flighty girl

And I dance to a different song
