Silky smooth
Lips as sweet as candy, baby
Tight blue jeans
Skin that shows in patches
Strong inside but you don't know it
Good little girls they never show it
When you open up your mouth to speak
Could you be a little weak
Chorus
Do you know what it feels like for a girl
Do you know what it feels like in this world
For a girl
Hair that twirls on finger tips so gently, baby
Hands that rest on jutting hips repenting
Strong inside but you don't know it
Good little girls they never show it
When you're trying hard to be your best
Could you be a little less
Chorus x2
Do you know what it feels like for a girl
Do you know what it feels like in this world
For a girl

This song Nobody Knows Me by Madonna (see concert video on YouTube) pumps me up and gives me the courage to live my life on my own terms. I hope it does the same for you.
Nobody Knows Me by Madonna Lyrics
I've had so many lives
Since I was a child
And I realize
How many times I've died
I'm not that kind of guy
Sometimes I feel shy
I think I can fly
Closer to the sky
No one's telling you how to live your life
But it's a set up until you're fed up
This world is not so kind
People trap your mind
It's so hard to find
Someone to admire
I… I sleep much better at night
I feel closer to the light
Now I'm gonna try
To improve my life
No one's telling you how to live your life
But it's a set up until you're fed up
It's no good when you're misunderstood
But why should I care?
What the world thinks of me
Won't let a stranger
Give me a social disease
Nobody, nobody knows me
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows me
Like you know me
No one's telling you how to live your life
But it's a setup, and I'm just fed up
It's no good when you're misunderstood
But why should I care?
What the world thinks of me
Won't let a stranger
Give me a social disease
I… I sleep much better at night
I feel closer to the light
Now I'm gonna try
To improve my life
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows me
Like you know me
Don't want your social disease

Feeling Good by Nina Simone Lyrics
Birds flying high you know how I feel
Sun in the sky you know how I feel
Reeds driftin on by you know how I feel
(refrain:)
Its a new dawn
Its a new day
Its a new life
For me
And Im feeling good
Fish in the sea you know how I feel
River running free you know how I feel
Blossom in the tree you know how I feel
(refrain)
Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, dont you know
Butterflies all havin fun you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done
Thats what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
Stars when you shine you know how I feel
Scent of the pine you know how I feel
Oh freedom is mine
And I know how I feel

If anxiety and depression stand between you and your happiness, try the free Holosynch CD by Centerpointe Research.
I just posted a blog earlier today about the new CD, Alone II - The Home Recordings of Rivers Cuomo and the hootenanny at Fingerprints. The Press-Telegram was there with a video camera. You can actually see a sliver of my red sweater and the side of my head if you know exactly where to look (2:20-2:23 see the red sweater sticking out at the far right side of the screen. My husband's head and camera is pretty much in front of Rivers' face during the song Buddy Holly).
In any case, the event was rejuvenating. It felt good to be in a room full of musicians and fans who were all excited to be there. Turns out, some people travelled from out of state to participate. Lucky me, I practically coulda walked there. I also wrote a story for the LAist. Check it out >>>
