[Verse 1]
Yeah you really tried but I was planted all the lies you told me, oh
All the shit you did you can't outrun the way you understand me
[Pre-Chorus]
You acted like you bought me at a bargain sale, you don't even care
You focused your frustration on a small detail, blew it out of scale, like my ponytail
[Chorus]
When you grow up to see, the girl I want to be
Then why, then why should I listen
When you grow up to do, the things I need from you
Goodbye, goodbye
Cause I gave it away, I gave it away, I gave it away
And I'm taking it right back
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna blow out of town, before we all stick to your decision, ooh
Gotta find a way to break the spell, to get the hell away from those two black magicians
[Pre-Chorus]
You used me as a fragment of your grand design, hey
And you, you don't get to put me on your bottled line
You don't get what's mine, and I'm doing fine
[Chorus]
Said you don't want to see, the girl I want to be
Then why, then why would I listen
You don't want to do, the things I need from you
Goodbye, goodbye
I gave it away, I gave it away, I gave it away
I'm taking it right back, baby
[Chorus]
When you don't want to see, the girl I want to be
Then why, then why should I listen
When you don't want to do, the things I need from you
Goodbye, goodbye
Cause I gave it away, I gave it away, I gave it away
I'm taking it right back
I'm taking it right back, baby
I'm taking it right back
