Song lyrics

You can paint me any colour
And I can be your clown
But you ain't got my number.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.

Now I got your back up,
What do you not like?
Do you think I'm stuck up
Cause I'm always picking fights?
You might think I'm one thing
But I am another.
You can't call my bluff.
Time to back up motherfucker.

Do you really want me to write a feminist anthem?
I'm happy cooking dinner in the kitchen for my husband.
Yeah, yeah...
Yeah, yeah...

You can paint me any colour
And I can be your clown
But you ain't got my number.
No, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.

You ain't got me sussed yet,
You're not even close.
Baby, it's the one thing
That I hate the most —
All these contradictions pouring out of me,
Just another girl in the twenty first century.

I'm never gonna give you anything you expect.
You think I'm like the others.
Boy, you need to get your eyes checked,
Checked,
Checked.

You can paint me any colour
And I can be your clown
But you ain't got my number.
No, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.

I could be your sister,
I could be your mother,
I could be your friend or
I could be your lover.
Do you like my body?
Do you like my mind?
What is it that you are having trouble to define?

I am never gonna give you anything you expect.
You think I'm like the others,
Boy, you need to get your eyes checked,
Checked.

You can paint me any colour,
I can be your russian doll
But you ain't got my number.
No, you can't make me small.

You can paint me any colour
And I can be your clown
But you ain't got my number.
No, you can't pin me down.

Yeah, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.
Yeah, you can't pin me down.
