It's just a phase
She's going through
It's not that old, it's something new
It's not your fault, she ain't blaming you
And it's just a phase
Is she 16 or 31
A little bit mean
Wearing her fun??
Whatever you do
Don't ask her age
It's just a phase
If she bursts into tears
And thinks that no one cares
Impatient, she's changing
She's running hot, she's running cold
The weather/Whatever she's got, inevitable
She's full of life
She's full of rage
It's just a phase
If she bursts into tears
And thinks that no one cares
Impatient, she's changing
No longer a curse
She's still in the hole
Whatever it's worth
She's such a dear
Let's make it clear
It's one of them days
It's just a phase
