[Verse 1]
Let me tell U my story
My favorite band in life is playing in town on Wednesday 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
[Chorus]
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 3 years of tribulation unless they lie
But with a female, 3 times 2 equals 6
[Verse 2]
When I'm older, I wanna be a movie star just like Greta Garbo
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
[Chorus]
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
Everybody gets 3 years of tribulation unless they lie
But with a female, 3 times 2 equals 6
Play your song one time, baby girl
I don't think they heard you now, baby
[Bridge]
That's all I need to say because I think you understand
Unless of course, in another life, you were a man
[Chorus]
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 3 years of tribulation unless they lie
But with a female, 3 times 2 equals 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 a female, 3 times 2 equals 6
Sister can you hear me talking to ya
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 a female, 3 times 2 is
