I resolve not to be so stupid I resolve not to play these games How often I've been a sitting duck for cupid How often I've let him shoot me down in flames I resolve not to be so trusting It's high time, time that I awoke Whatever I've got up here is up here rusting My feminine intuition is a joke I must be cousin to a cat I always wind up with a rat I'm through with momentary thrills I find I can't afford the bills I resolve Come what may I will not be this girl one more day I resolve not be so brainless I resolve not to be so dumb My usual brush with love is far from painless And suddenly I have got to know how come I resolve not to blame the others Just because I'm an easy mark I wanna know why I never meet their mothers Where men are concerned I'm always in the dark I must stop thinking with my skin I will not be a mandolin That someone strums and puts away Until he gets the urge to play I resolve Here and Now I will be a different girl Somehow.
