I like anime, I pretend it's real
But then again, it's just pretend
My parents think I'm goin' crazy
They say grownup girls don't play pretend

I like books, I act them out
Sometimes with a friend
People see and shake their heads
They say grownup girls don't play pretend

I like to write, I act like my characters
My friends ask each morning who I am
Everyone thinks that I'm so weird
They say grownup girls don't play pretend

I don't care what they all think
They can't comprehend
But sometimes I can't help but wonder why
They say grownup girls don't play pretend
