LYRICS:
Shimmer Like A Girl
Nina Gordon
dishing you
have a mind of your own now
shame on you
completely setting the tone now
i caught you
bleeding under my skin now
I fought you
but you’re beginning to win now
well i don’t care
i swear its my turn now
shimmer shimmer like a girl should yeah
shimmer shimmer like a girl should yeah
shimmer shimmer like a girl should
you gotta get it glimmer shimmer sparkle while you can
she’s crashing
falling off of the tracks now
we’re cracking
at the small of my back now
i failed you
and they’re beginning to talk now
i nailed you
you take me walking the walk now
