Bilingual
She felt mighty high with that college degree
And her little apartment, her job, and her freedom
She wouldn't be anyone's marionette
Didn't need anyone's strings buried there on her back
Said girl don't you settle down, home is a cell
Just get on this pill, and oh hey, here's another
This one'll make certain you're never a mother
This one's for the pleasure, this one's for the pain
And this one's for the darkness that's settling in
And this one's for the end when you're dying alone
Oh, it's not too late
Oh, it's not too late
Oh, it's not too late
But it might be too late if you don't hurry home
It might be too late if you don't hurry home
Well, the years roll on by, but something keeps nagging
Tugging and tearing and rooting around
I know just the thing-another vacation
Thank God there's not anyone slowing me down
I will not be anyone's nursery maid
But there's a hole in her heart 'bout the size of a cradle
Hollering, screaming, behind all the paint
Covering that paper-thin face you give 'em
Smile, but don't ever let anyone in
Be a good girl now, honey, go get that promotion
Oh, it's not too late
Oh, it's not too late
Oh, it's not too late
But it might be too late if you don't hurry home
It might be too late if you don't hurry home
Oh, it might be too late if you don't hurry home
Maybe now it's too late-oh, you should of gone home
Maybe now it's too late-oh, you should of gone home
