0:23Where's my white knight
0:28My prince to save the day
0:34I've always paved my own way
0:42I'm all alone Bringing home the bread
0:52Raising the kid fixing the bed
1:01I wanna be a star Like Marilyn Monroe
1:05A Cinderella Fantasy A naive Clara Bow
1:11A princess and the pea I try to play the part
1:16Surrounded by society Hypnotizing me
1:20It's hard to be soft
1:35I'm the only one Keeping the home alive
1:46Making the meals She's 9 to 5
2:12I wanna have a star Like Marilyn Monroe
2:17A Cinderella fantasy A naive Clara Bow
2:23A princess and the pea We try to play the part
2:28Surrounded by society Hypnotizing me
2:32It's hard to be soft
2:41Out there on my own
2:44Successful in the world
2:46It works to be so strong
2:52But when I come home
2:54My pendulum's outta control
2:57I'm passive or I let my fi re blow
3:04In a man's world it's hard to be soft
3:10I don't want to be a star
3:13Like Marilyn Monroe
3:16A Cinderella fantasy
3:18A naive Clara Bow
3:21A princess and the pea
3:24I try to play the part
3:26Surrounded by society
3:29Hypnotizing me to be
3:32Home-baked apple pie
3:34A centerfold in heels
3:37A Betty Crocker Pamela
3:40Complacent to believe
3:43In my Mr Right
3:45A pipe and slippers guy
3:48A ready steady rock-hard Eddy
3:51Oops not always guess it's only
3:53Hard to be soft
Where's my white knight My prince to save the day I've always paved my own way I'm all alone Bringing home the bread Raising the kid fixing the bed I wanna be a star Like Marilyn Monroe A Cinderella Fantasy A naive Clara Bow A princess and the pea I try to play the part Surrounded by society Hypnotizing me It's hard to be soft I'm the only one Keeping the home alive Making the meals She's 9 to 5 I wanna have a star Like Marilyn Monroe A Cinderella fantasy A naive Clara Bow A princess and the pea We try to play the part Surrounded by society Hypnotizing me It's hard to be soft Out there on my own Successful in the world It works to be so strong But when I come home My pendulum's outta control I'm passive or I let my fi re blow In a man's world it's hard to be soft I don't want to be a star Like Marilyn Monroe A Cinderella fantasy A naive Clara Bow A princess and the pea I try to play the part Surrounded by society Hypnotizing me to be Home-baked apple pie A centerfold in heels A Betty Crocker Pamela Complacent to believe In my Mr Right A pipe and slippers guy A ready steady rock-hard Eddy Oops not always guess it's only Hard to be soft
