Текст песни The Girl Stands Up To Me Now - Jonathan Richman

Well...
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before
I used to win all arguments when she felt inferior

But now the girl says yes when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before

Well now when she says no
It comes out smooth as silk
She don't act like no bad breakfast cereal
Waiting to wilt into milk

Because the girl says when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before

When she says "No" to me
It's just like the umpire's call
She goes "Strike! Strike! Strike three, buddy!"
And "Ball! Ball! Ball!"

Because the girl says yes when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before

When she first said "No"
Oh! That was rough!
But now I think I like her better
Tough, tough tough.

Because the girl says yes when she means yes
The girl says no when she means no
The girl stands up to me now
More than she did before
More than she did before
