PHENOMENAL WOMAN
Pretty women wonder where my secret lies
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion size
But when I start to tell them
They think I'm telling lies
I say,
It's in the reach of my arms
The span of my hips
The stride of my step,
The curl of my lips
I'm woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.
I walk into a room
Just as cool as you please,
And to a man
The fellows stand or
Fall down on their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive of honey bees.
I say,
It's the fire in my eyes,
And the flash of my teeth,
The swing in my waist,
And the joy in my feet
I'm woman.
Phenomenally
Phenomental woman,
That's me.
Men themselves have wondered
What they see in me.
They try so much
But they can't touch
My inner mystery.
When I try to show them
They say I can't see.
I say,
It's in the arch of my back,
The sun of my smile,
The ride of my breasts,
The grace of my style.
I'm woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman.
That's me.
How you understand
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me passing
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's in the click of my heels,
The bend of my hair,
The palm of my hand,
The need for my care.;
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman.
That's me.
I AM THAT PHENOMENAL WOMAN....
TODAY AND EVERYDAY
I AM STRONG AND I CAN DO ANYTHING.
TODAY AND EVERYDAY
I AM STRONG AND I CAN DO ANYTHING.
