How lovely to be a woman 

The wait was well worth wile

How lovely to wear mascara and smile a woman’s smile

How lovely to have a figure that’s round instead of flat

Whenever you hear boys whistle, you’re what they’re whistling at

How lovely to feel so grownup and free

Life’s lovely when you’re a woman like me

I wish I had a lover to occupy my hands

To take me from the kitchen to the terrace for a dance

To help me love my body ‘cause it’s the only one I have

Release me from this reel of thoughts I’ll never understand

And sing for me so I can go to bed

I wish I had a mudra to occupy my hands

To take me from my bed into the sky where I can dance

Find a home in time alone a comfort from within

Look at me and smile ‘cause I feel good in my own skin

And let the flow of real self love begin
