(Spoken)

Express yourself, dont repress yourself (repeat 4 times)

[Chorus]

And im not sorry [im not sorry]

Its human nature [its human nature]

And im not sorry [im not sorry]

Im not your bitch dont hang your shit on me [its human nature]

You wouldnt let me say the words I longed to say

You didnt want to see life through my eyes

[Express yourself, dont repress yourself]

You tried to shove me back inside your narrow room

And silence me with bitterness and lies

[Express yourself, dont repress yourself]

Did I say something wrong?

Oops, I didnt know I couldnt talk about sex

[I musta been crazy]

Did I stay too long?

Oops, I didnt know I couldnt speak my mind

[What was I thinking]

(Chorus)

You punished me for telling you my fantasies

Im breakin all the rules I didnt make

[Express yourself, dont repress yourself]

You took my words and made a trap for silly fools

You held me down and tried to make me break

[Express yourself, dont repress yourself]

Bridge

Did I say something true?

Oops, I didnt know I couldnt talk about sex

[I musta been crazy]

Did I have a point of view?

Oops, I didnt know I couldnt talk about you

[What was I thinking]

(Chorus)

Express yourself, dont repress yourself (repeat twice)

Express yourself, dont repress yourself (repeat twice)

(Bridge)
