Audra Mcdonald - As You Make Your Bed Lyrics

Gents, when I was young my mother painted
My future: completely black
She said I’d up on a stone slab
Or at any rate, on my back
Well that stuff isn’t hard to say
But I say I won’t end up like that
I’m not going to stand getting fleeced
Just let anyone try walking over me
A girl’s not a beast!

In this world, you must make your own bed
And no one will show you the trick
So lie down and get kicked if you want to
As for me, I would rather stand and kick
In this world, you must make your own bed
And no one will show you the trick
So lie down and get kicked if you want to
As for me, I would rather stand and kick

Girls when I was young a fella told me
While gazing in my eyes
“Tonight love is all that’s important
Who knows if tomorrow’s sun will rise”
Well loving, that’s an easy game
But we all still get older, that’s the rule
And love doesn’t stay quite the same
So you have to use your time as best you can
A girl’s not at fault!
In this world, you must make your own bed
And no one will show you the trick
So lie down and get kicked if you want to
As for me, I would rather stand and kick
In this world, you must make your own bed
And no one will show you the trick
So lie down and get kicked if you want to
As for me, I will stand up and kick
