Verse 1

It seems years since you held the baby while I wrecked the bedroom

You said it was dangerous after Sunday and I knew you loved me

He thinks I just became famous and that's what messed me up but he's wrong

How could I possibly know what I want when I was only twenty-one?

There's millions of people to offer advice and say how I should be

But they're twisted and they will never be

Any influence on me but you will always be

You will always be

Chorus

If I treated you mean

I really didn't mean to

But you know how it is and how a pregnancy can change you

Verse 2

I see plenty of clothes that I like but I won't go anywhere nice for a while

All I want to do is just sit here and write it all down and rest for a while

I can't bear to be in another city one where you are not

I would return to nothing without you if I'm your girlfriend or not

Chorus

Maybe I was mean

But I really don't think so

You asked if I'm scared and I said so

Verse 3

Everyone can see what's going on

They laugh `cause they know they're untouchable not because what I said was wrong

Whatever it may bring I will live by my own policies

I will sleep with a clear conscience I will sleep in peace

Chorus

Maybe I was mean

But I really don't think so

You asked for the truth and I told you

Through their own words

They will be exposed

They've got a severe case of

The emperor's new clothes

The emperor's new clothes

The emperor's new clothes
