I’m the girl that they call shy
I’m the girl that they call a scary cat
I have these chains wrapped around me
There’s this one chain I want to break
Singing is the best talent I have
but I’m afraid to shine and show the world
my amazing talent. One day I’m going to be
loose as a goose so you better not get me started.
