Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
I was a kid but I was wise enough to know I shouldn't follow everything
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh
And soon, I recounted my grace
And spending my time like that's been marmalade, yeah
Making it count like I got marmalade, mmh
Loving the ones that's been loving me
'Cause it turns out tomboys have feelings too, hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo
Yeah, it turns out tomboys have feelings too, hoo-hoo, hoo-hoo
And I have 'em, I have 'em for you
