3 X 2 = 6

Let me tell you a story

My favorite band in life is playing town on Wednesday's night
I wish to God I had the nerve to go
The singer in the band's my type, not too big or small
But I hate to let my inner feelings show

My made-up name is Vanity
'Cause a girl's best friend's her pride
And a working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks
Everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie
But with the female, 3 x 2 = 6

When I'm older, I wanna be a movie star just like Greta Garbo
Well, then I can tell everybody what to do
Well, she was so cool, it was plain to see that she was in control
I bet she never played the part of anyone's fool

So, my made-up name is Vanity
'Cause a girl's best friend's her pride
And a working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks (Oh no, oh no)
Everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie
But with the female, 3 x 2 = 6

Play your song one time, baby girl
I don't think they heard you now, baby

That's all I need to say because I think you understand
Unless, of course, in another life you were a man

Please believe me when I tell you
A girl's best friend's her pride
A working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks
No, she don't
Everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie
But with the female, well, 3 x 2 = 6

Won't somebody help me?
Please believe me when I tell you
A girl's best friend's her pride
A working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks
Sister, can you hear me?
(Everybody gets 3 years of tribulation unless they lie)
But with the female, (3 x 2 = 6) 3 x 2 = 6

(Sister, can you hear me talkin' to ya?)
(Please believe me when I tell you)
(A girl's best friend's her pride) A girl's best friend's her pride
(A working girl don't have 2 tolerate the mailman's tricks)
(Sister, can you hear me?)
(Everybody gets 3 years of tribulation unless they lie)
But with the female, 3 x 2 = 6
