[Verse 1]
Everybody's trying to tell me what to do
Everybody's trying to tell me what to do
It makes me want to break some sh*t and sniff some glue
Everybody's trying to tell me what to do
Stranger in the bar tells me to smile more
I look at him and I ask, "What for?
I am happily unhappy, man
And no, I don't wanna shake your hand"
[Chorus]
I don't want to be a reflection
I'm so bored with this rejection
I don't want to be a reflection
I don't need your direction
[Verse 2]
And I am not ashamed of my mental state
And I am not ashamed of my body weight
And I am not ashamed of my rage
And I am not ashamed of my age
And I am not ashamed of my sex life
Although I wish it were better
I am not ashamed I am no one's wife
Although the idea does sound kind of nice
[Chorus]
I don't want to be a reflection
I'm so bored with this rejection
I don't want to be a reflection
I don't need your direction
[Bridge]
All this rejection is bad for my complexion
Come on now, let's take this to the next section
[Verse 3]
People think they know what kind of girl I am
They take one look, they think they understand
And they are always surprised when they meet me
Apparently I'm terribly misleading
And yes, I am a feminist
But that isn't why I started doing this
And sometimes I am full of bitterness
But I am trying to work through this
[Chorus]
I don't want to be a reflection
I'm so bored with this rejection
I don't want to be a reflection
I don't need your direction
I don't want to be a reflection
I'm so bored with this rejection
I don't want to be a reflection
I don't need your d-d-d-discorrection
