[Verse 1]

When he said

When he sa-a-id

That he liked my cut of hair

I became a barber

When he said

When he sa-a-id

That my scent was au-dé-fleur

I became a perfum-er

When he said

When he sa-a-id

That he liked the clothes I wore

I became a tailor

[Chorus]

And I sewed a party dress

In and out

In and out

With a needle and thread

In and out

In and out

In my head the thoughts of him

In and out

In and out

And in

[Verse 2]

When he said

When he sa-a-id

He was lеa-ving

I took up violin

When he said

When hе sa-a-id

That my body he'd not miss

I became sculptress

When he sa-id

When he sa-ai-ai-d

That my face he'd soon forget

I became a poet

[Chorus]

And a fiddle and bow

In and out

In and out

And a chisel and stone

In and out

In and o-ou-ut

And the fountain pen

In and out

In and out

And in

[Verse 3]

Now that he's gone away

There isn't anyone to say if I am a [???]

Or a crazy woman

Now that he's gone away

There isn't anyone to say if I am a dia~mond

Or a dime a dozen

[Bridge]

Didn't I gleam in my father's eye?[¿]

Who am I ?

Didn't I split my mother's side?[¿]

Who am I ?

Didn't I?

Didn't I drink her nipple dry?

Who am I ?

And no-one taught me how to cry

Who am I?

How to cry for what I want

In the night

Who am I?

Didn't I cry, cry

Who am I?

Who am I?

[Outro]

When he said

When he sa-a-id

That he liked the clothes I wore

I became a tailor
