Don't let anybody tell you who you are; don't let anyone tell you that you don't deserve what you're willing to work for.
Never give up; you\'ll never know how far you could go until you try to get to where you want to go.

You're sittin' over there
talkin' like you're better than me
like you've got a right, more skill in everything
like it's destined in some prophecy
But let me tell you something
something one day you'll see
one day you'll figure out, what the world is all about
you'll step back to re-evaluate me
re-think your priorities

CHORUS: Never underestimate a girl
cause' one day she will become your world
she understands,she wears the pants
she knows your thoughts with one glance

Never underestimate a girl
cause' one day you'll be on her pay roll
can control you with her finger,
so don't dare too long to linger,
cause' you know she's in control
never underestimate a girl

Go ahead and drop your mouth
you know what I'm talkin' about
guess one day you'll see
Beauty tamed the Beast
Ariel left the sea
we're stronger than you think

CHORUS

Never underestimate a girl
no, never underestimate a girl

DON'T UNDERESTIMATE A GIRL... I know some guys think they are tougher or more skilled but... us girls stick together and we're strong and we're quick thinking... so we'll take your world by surprise....

Hey Amanda,

I agree with you 100%. Your song is TERRIFIC, no matter what people like him say. SethWical, your very last few words were cruel. See? You guys just think you're way better than girls - we're all equals here...

Hi, I appreciate that you read the song but you do NOT need to post anything so harsh and cynical. It is not okay for you to insult another's work like the way you just did. I am very proud of my work, and I like it the way it is. You should not say immature comments like that; no one respects a jerk.

Yeah, and if I followed this conversation well enough, I think I noticed that you apoligized for saying that anyway.  Why the sudden change of heart?

i am only going to ask this of you once as kindly as possible. please leave religion out of this. personal belief is one thing, religious belief is another. i would rather no get into a religious debate here in front of people i would rather not offend.

Depending on the person, and how they interpret it. Some stuff we know, other stuff like the Book of Revelation can confuse us. But the Bible clearly states that the woman should submit to the man. Plain and simple. Call it the Rule Book to mankind.

The bible can be misread in so many ways.  Understand, the bible also says "no man knows."  so we have no idea what half the stuff in the bible means.

Areyou people on drugs? Have you gals ever heard of the Bible? It says that women should submit to the husband. So the guys wear the pants in a relationship. End of subject!
