I wish I would dye my hair pink
Put on black lipstick
And no one would give a shit
Short shorts, short skirts
Flower tops, denim shirts
In the big city, nothing hurts, nothing hurts
When I was a little girl I wanted to be a citizen of the world
Being busy with my job and my gay friends
Laughin' and drinkin' with my one night stands
Why are you looking as if I was abnormal?
Oh yes, you're right, I've never tried to be normal
I just wanna walk around free on my own pace
I pay my bills with the money I make!
I wish I would dye my hair pink
Put on black lipstick
And no one would give a shit
Short shorts, short skirts
Flower tops, denim shirts
In the big city, nothing hurts, nothing hurts
When I was 13 my brother moved to New York city
I dreamt so much about being there and live the live
I didn't have yet
Why are you looking as if I was abnormal?
Oh yes, you're right, I've never tried to be normal
I just wanna walk around free on my own pace
I pay my bills with the money I make!
I wish I would dye my hair pink
Put on black lipstick
And no one would give a shit
Short shorts, short skirts
Flower tops, denim shirts
In the big city, nothing hurts, nothing hurts
Cody: Hey city grrrl
Yeah, yeah you city grrrl
Hot on the heels of how this tide will turn
You live your life to erase the lines of every lesson learned
So put your lipstick on all over your teeth
Cuz you're a natural disaster no one's gonna cheat
You swear? Yeah, I swear. Just get in the groovey
Don't live your life grrrl
Unless it's just like a movie
When I was 16 I finally move to the big city!
My dreams were screaming at my face
Heads up girl you can rule this place!
