I want you girl to be smart
I want you girl to play the part
I want you girl to be smart
I want you girl to be the star
The tawdry lies have all come into view
Denying the obvious is the best they can do
It’s so cruel girl they broke our hearts
It’s so cruel girl they’ve gone to far
I want you girl to be smart
I want you girl to be the star
We’ve used it up so fast
These golden years cannot last
I want you girl to be smart
I want you girl to be the star
I need you girl to raise the bar
I need you girl to stop the car
These dangerous times call out for truth
A caring mind can unstick the glue
Let’s not sit out this dance
For it could be our last
Let’s not wait
Let’s not wait
There’s no miracles going to come
There’s no miracles going to come
