Just So There's No Misunderstanding

Just So There's No Misunderstanding

Just so there's no misunderstanding,
let me make some things clear.
I'm not your honey, your sweetheart,
your baby, or your dear.

I don't run your errands.
I don't screen your calls.
I am not your secretary,
and you are not my damn boss.

You think I have no backbone.
You think I let people walk all over me.
I just happen to pick my battles.
Fighting isn't always necessary.

Don't take my kindness for weakness
or my tears for pain.
Today I am nice and sweet,
but I don't always have to be this way.

You can push me and push me,
until you've pushed me too far.
I'll push you back,
then you'll wish you hadn't started this war.

I may be short
but my punches come in packs.
My words are my secret  weapons,
I don't have to raise a finger to hit you with that.

You want to talk behind my back
like I won't eventually hear.
You're a two faced low down dirty coward,
to my face you can't say what you really feel.

You know I will come for you,
and tell you to explain yourself to me.
But as always you'll be a cockeyed chicken
with knockin' knobby knees.

So, just so there's no misunderstanding....
you can save yourself the trouble and  just beware of me.
Step out of line again,
and I can be the bitch you claim me to be.
