She's sweet, only just his type
He pulls her in with a drink and a smile
Naive, baby, don't think twice if he comes with a price
Run for your life
They're always trying to take what's not theirs
Drives me insane, it's not fair
What a terrible life for a woman
Who just wants to be left alone
What a horrible world for all of the girls
Getting cat-called as they're walking home
With keys in her hand, you don't understand
What she's headed through to get here
What a beautiful life for a woman
Who knows what she's worth and knows why she's here
What a pretty distraction
They told her to cover up her shoulders
'Cause the boys couldn't focus
Maybe they should teach him to control his own actions
But that's not what happens
They're always trying to take what's not theirs
Drives me insane, it's not fair
What a terrible life for a woman
Who just wants to be left alone
What a horrible world for all of the girls
Getting cat-called as they're walking home
With keys in her hand, you don't understand
What she's headed through to get here
What a beautiful life for a woman
Who knows what she's worth and knows why she's here
He says, "What a pretty distraction
She's just what I need
And I know she'll be mine by the end of the night
If I make her as insecure as me" (whoa-oh-oh)
What a terrible life for a woman
Who just wants to be left alone
What a horrible world for all of the girls
Getting cat-called as they're walking home
With keys in her hand, you don't understand
What she's headed through to get here
What a beautiful life for a woman who knows what she's worth
And knows why she's here
