I was warned as a child of thirteen
Not to act too strong
Try to look like you belong but don´t push girl
Save your time and trouble
Don´t misbehave

I was raised in a "No You Don´t World"
Overrun with rules
Memorize your lines and move as directed
That´s an age old story
Everybody knows that´s a worn out song
But you and I are changing that tune
We´re learning new rhythms from the woman
I said the woman in the moon
Little sister, little brother
Keep on pushin´
Don´t believe a word about
Things you heard about
Askin´ too much too soon
´Cause they can hold back the tide
But they can never hold the woman in the moon
I believe there´s a best of both worlds
Mixing old and new
Recognizing change is seldom expected

As I long suspected
They believed that strange was a word for wrong
Well not in my song
´Cause you, you and I are changing that tune
We´re learning new rhythms from that woman in the moon
Little sister, little brother
Keep on pushin´
Don´t believe a word about
Things you heard about
Askin´ too much too soon
´Cause they can hold back the tide
But they can never hold the woman
I said the woman in the moon
