Take Me Or Leave Me

Every single day
I walk down the street
I hear people say baby so sweet
Ever since puberty
Everybody stares at me
Boys, girls, I can't help it, baby

So be kind
And don't lose your mind
Just remember that I'm your baby

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn
Take me baby
Or leave me
Take me baby or leave me

A tiger in a cage
Can never see the sun
This diva needs her stage baby
Let's have fun!
You are the one I choose
Folks would kill to fill your shoes
You love the limelight too now baby

So be mine,and don't waste my time
Cryin': Oh honey bear are you still my, my, my baby?
(Don't you dare)

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn
Take me baby
Or leave me

No way, can I be what I'm not
But hey, don't you want your girl hot?
Don't fight, don't lose your head
'Cause every night who's in your bed?
Who?
Who's in your bed?
Kiss Pookie!
It won't work!

I look before I leap
I love margins and discipline
I make lists in my sleep, baby
What's my sin
Never quit
I follow through
I hate mess but I love you
What to do with my impromptu baby?

So be wise, 'cause this girl satisfies
You've got a prize, so don't compromise
You're one lucky baby!

Take me for what I am
A control freak
Who I was meant to be
A snob yet over attentive
And if you give a damn
A lovable droll, geek
Take me baby or leave me
An anal retentive

That's it!
The straw that breaks my back
I quit!
Unless you take it back
Women, what is it about them?
Can't live, with them or without them!

Take me for what I am
Who I was meant to be
Who I was meant to be
And if you give a damn (and if you give a damn you better)
Take me baby or leave me (take me baby)
Take me or leave me
Take me baby
Or leave me
Guess I'm leaving, I'm gone
