Wake up in the morning
Lookin' a little rough
Today I don't know who I am
Today that's not enough

So I go up to the mirror
Strike another pose
Happy, sad, good, bad
With every change of clothes
But everything I see is me, yeah, me

[Chorus]
I'm the girl in the band
The world looks good from where I stand
If you hear me raise your hand
For the girl in the band
Let the party begin
I'm feelin' good inside my skin
With the world at my command
I'm the girl in the band

Ain't no doubt about it
You can tell by the way I walk
I'm cruisin' by, head held high
I can talk the talk

One, two, three, four
Oh, ready or not
I've got to put it on the line
Gotta show you what I've got
And I know what you see is me, yeah, me

[Chorus]
I'm the girl in the band
The world looks good from where I stand
If you hear me raise your hand
For the girl in the band
Let the party begin
I'm feelin' good inside my skin
With the world at my command
I'm the girl in the band

Why, oh, why ain't I?
I just want what's mine
(What's mine and nothin' more)
Time, it's time, it's time
(Time to let it all out strong)
I just want to sing my song

Hey, you, get outta your seat
Get over yourself
Get on the beat
Hey, you, get off of your cloud
Come down to Earth
Get into the crowd
And I know what you see is me

[Chorus]
I'm the girl in the band
The world looks good from where I stand
If you hear me raise your hand
For the girl in the band
Let the party begin
I'm feelin' good inside my skin
With the world at my command
I'm the girl in the band
I'm the girl in the band
