[Chrisette Michele - Porcelain Doll lyrics]
Havin' this conversation again oh my God
Here's the thing I need you
To stop treatin' me
As if I'm simple or naive
As if I don't know nothin' 'bout the world
I understand you think you're protectin' me
Well, I could use a little room to breathe
And the respect you give a woman not a girl
Here's the thing I appreciate all the love
The constant caterin', kisses and hugs
But lately I'm wonderin' what you do it for
If the reason you act all over sweet is
'Cause you want to keep me on a leash
I have no choice but to show you the door
If you wanna cradle me like a little girl
And lock me down, I'm not your possession
I'm a full grown woman
I am not your porcelain doll
If you wanna cradle me like a little girl
And lock me down, I'm not your possession
I'm a full grown woman
I am not your porcelain doll
Here's the thing you wanna put
Me in fancy clothes
And take me everywhere you go
And show me off to all your fancy friends
Okay
Well, here's the thing I really
Don't mind the clothes
I love a nice dress with some open toes
But a trophy I'm not so baby think again
Hey
And here's the thing you always
Wanna hold my hand
And say things to me like I'm the man
So let me do what a man's suppose to do
Okay
Well, here's the thing you can be
The man all the while
Understandin' I'm not a child
You're the man for sure but
Baby I'm grown too, hey
If you wanna cradle me like a little girl
And lock me down, I'm not your possession
I'm a full grown woman
I am not your porcelain doll
If you wanna cradle me like a little girl
And lock me down, I'm not your possession
I'm a full grown woman
I am not your porcelain doll
Said you gotta respect me totally otherwise
I'm gonna up and leave
And baby I know you don't want me to do that
Babe you gotta respect me totally
So when I say back up off of me
Just kiss my cheek and politely move back
Oh, you wanna cradle me like a little girl
And lock me down, I'm not your possession
I'm a full grown woman, I
Am not your porcelain doll, hey hey hey
You wanna cradle me like a little girl
And lock me down, I'm not your possession
I'm a full grown woman, I
Am not your porcelain doll, hey hey hey
I'm a full grown woman, I
Am not your porcelain doll, one more time
I'm a full grown woman
I am not your porcelain doll
That's it in a nutshell
