Talitha Kelly - Beauty Queen Lyrics

You called me 'annoying'
And that made me smile
You thought I would be mourning
The girl not worth wile

And it makes me mad
I held your thoughts like gold
It turned my mind, and thoughts of myself
Into old, rotted mould

But I have inspected
Something I've never known
Fell into step
And fell on the soles of my
Feet, asked the questions
That programmed too slow
Because of you and your opinion
I was never owed

I don't need to be
The next Beauty Queen
I don't need to wait
For the man in the corner
To tell me I can speak
All the choices that I make
Yeah they're for me
So, thank you for your little speech
But now you're just annoying me

Accused of seduction
When I 'fluttered my eyes'
I don't know what goes on
In a guy's mind
When we put on a dress
And they think it's for them
A deserved recipient of control
Of the feeble female soul

But I have inspected
Something I've never known
Fell into step
And fell on the soles of my
Feet, asked the questions
That programmed too slow
Because of you and your opinion
I was never owed

I don't need to be
The next Beauty Queen
I don't need to wait
For the man in the corner
To tell me I can speak
All the choices that I make
Yeah they're for me
So, thank you for your little speech
But now you're just annoying me

I don't need to be
The next Beauty Queen
I don't need to wait
For the man in the corner
To tell me I can speak
All the choices that I make
Yeah they're for me
So, thank you for your little speech
But now you're just annoying me
