Nothing Nice To Say

I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em
When I was younger I was told
You can do anything when you grow old
As long as you work hard, play smart;
Think with your head, but always follow your heart
What a nice daydream I was sold
You say the way I behave should be toned down but I won't
'Cause I know I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't
I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em
'Cause I'd rather be myself than change for someone else
Change for someone else
And you say "Be more like a lady"
But I'll take a leaf from the woman who raised me
Time's up; better be on your way
If you've got nothing nice to say
Don't get me wrong I'm not just tryin' to find
Any excuse to bring this up all the time
And I would be rich now if I had a pound
For every time they say they're messin' around
And you say "I mean no offence" but turns out it still kinda hurts
So how 'bout a compliment 'cause treat 'em mean to keep us keen won't work
I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em
'Cause I'd rather be myself than change for someone else
Change for someone else
And you say "be more like a lady"
But I'll take a leaf from the woman who raised me
Time's up; better be on your way
If you've got nothing nice to say
Woah, yeah yeah
Cover up but show some skin
If I run like a girl, does that mean I won't win?
And should I always smile just to make ya feel better
Does it make me a bitch if I try to reject ya?
I'm a boss
So don't call me "Honey"
I've been doing your job while I'm makin' less money
At the top ya know there's room for so many
But I still have to say "Time's up" in 2020
Yeah, yeah
I know you have opinions but
I don't, I don't wanna hear 'em
'Cause I'd rather be myself than change for someone else
Change for someone else
And you say "Be more like a lady"
I'll say "Good luck trying to change me"
Time's up; better be on your way (Better be on your way)
If you have nothing nice to say
Ooh, mmm
If you've got nothing nice to say
