Lyrics
Sticks and Stones
Eenie Meenie miny moe
If he hollers let him go
A boy like that is always talk and never show
Girl I know
He might be sugar and spice and everything nice
But if he can?t hack a woman that knows her rights??
Don?t you dare stand there
Pretend to be a damsel in distress
Bat your eyes and wring your hands
And twirl your dress
You may find that compromise
Could cure the aching in your bones
Until you find your heart is made of sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Eenie Meenie miny mee
If he?s patient wait and see
A shy guy might be hiding something up his sleeve
I believe
That he?ll be ashes to ashes dust to dust
If he can?t hack a woman that knows her stuff
Don?t you dare stand there
Pretend to be a damsel in distress
Bat your eyes and wring your hands
And twirl your dress
You may find that compromise
Could cure the aching in your bones
Until you find your heart is made of sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
Sticks and stones
