Song Description
This is an unapologetic anthem for us gals smitten with the spirit of independance, and who are accepting of our flaws and any fate that may bestow us as we burn bright along our soulful if not imperfectly rambling and slightly self-destructive ways...

Lyrics
I'm not as clever as I'd like to be,
I'm not as rugged as I'd like to be,
I'm not as pretty as I'd like to be,
but that's the way it is, and that's just me.
And I can't sing too well,
but it's well enough for rock'n'roll.
And I can't rap too well,
but well enough to show that I got soul.
I burn fast and I burn bright
you really gotta know that no man can own me.
I burn fast and I burn bright
you really gotta know that no man can own me.
If I'm in love, if I'm on my own,
you really gotta know that my life's my own.
If I'm in love, if I'm on my own,
you really gotta know that my life's my own.
Defiantly wild and free.
I may live in an illusion,
I may dabble at the buffet of life.
Jack of all trades, honey, who'm I foolin':
how'm I ever gonna be a gentleman's wife?
Master of none, I'm the queen of nothing,
I may crash and burn before my time.
But in the end I will have made something,
made something so beautiful and bright.
I burn fast and I burn bright
you really gotta know that no man can own me.
I burn fast and I burn bright
you really gotta know that no man can own me.
If I'm in love, if I'm on my own,
you really gotta know that my life's my own.
If I'm in love, if I'm on my own,
you really gotta know that my life's my own.
Defiantly wild and free.
