[Repeat Chorus]
The song "Greenhorn" by Lexy features introspective lyrics that delve into the singer's complex understanding of gender expectations and societal norms. In the opening verse, she describes herself as a woman who is not interested in conforming to the standards imposed by men, explaining that she is not the kind of woman that men look for. The chorus emphasizes the singer's sense of independence and refusal to conform to society's expectations, repeating the phrase "I'm different" multiple times.
The second verse begins with a description of a man who is confident and assertive, but ultimately shallow in his understanding of women. The singer mocks his behavior, implying that he is too focused on appearances and status to truly understand the complexities of human relationships. The song reaches its climax with the bridge, which features a call-and-response section that encourages listeners to embrace their differences and reject societal norms.
