Phenomenal Woman"



Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.

I`m not cute or built to suit a fashion model`s size

But when I start to tell them,

They think I`m telling lies.

I say,

It`s in the reach of my arms

The span of my hips,

The stride of my step,

The curl of my lips.

I`m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That`s me.



I walk into a room

Just as cool as you please,

And to a man,

The fellows stand or

Fall down on their knees.

Then they swarm around me,

A hive of honey bees.

I say,

It`s the fire in my eyes,

And the flash of my teeth,

The swing in my waist,

And the joy in my feet.

I`m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That`s me.



Men themselves have wondered

What they see in me.

They try so much

But they can`t touch

My inner mystery.

When I try to show them

They say they still can`t see.

I say,

It`s in the arch of my back,

The sun of my smile,

The ride of my breasts,

The grace of my style.

I`m a woman



Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That`s me.



Now you understand

Just why my head`s not bowed.

I don`t shout or jump about

Or have to talk real loud.

When you see me passing

It ought to make you proud.

I say,

It`s in the click of my heels,

The bend of my hair,

the palm of my hand,

The need of my care,

`Cause I`m a woman

Phenomenally.

Phenomenal woman,

That`s me.
