Don't let anybody tell you who you are; don't let anyone tell you that you don't deserve what you're willing to work for.
Never give up; you\'ll never know how far you could go until you try to get to where you want to go.

You're sittin' over there
talkin' like you're better than me
like you've got a right, more skill in everything
like it's destined in some prophecy
But let me tell you something
something one day you'll see
one day you'll figure out, what the world is all about
you'll step back to re-evaluate me
re-think your priorities

CHORUS: Never underestimate a girl
cause' one day she will become your world
she understands,she wears the pants
she knows your thoughts with one glance

Never underestimate a girl
cause' one day you'll be on her pay roll
can control you with her finger,
so don't dare too long to linger,
cause' you know she's in control
never underestimate a girl

Go ahead and drop your mouth
you know what I'm talkin' about
guess one day you'll see
Beauty tamed the Beast
Ariel left the sea
we're stronger than you think

CHORUS

Never underestimate a girl
no, never underestimate a girl

DON'T UNDERESTIMATE A GIRL... I know some guys think they are tougher or more skilled but... us girls stick together and we're strong and we're quick thinking... so we'll take your world by surprise....

I absolutely loved the part where you talked about ariel and the sea and beauty and the beast. It's classic and pop style. I love emphasizing the fact that girls have power (: i just love this song. You should totally write a tune for it and put it on youtube. Best of Luck ;D

maybe she's referring to ariel in the disney version.

Ariel didn't leave the sea...she commited suicide because the Prince didn't love her. I don't mean to sound rude saying that, but maybe you should change that line?

I like this song, but at the same time it also reminds me of a Vanessa Hudgens song, Never Underestimate A Girl. You have a lot similarities so I think you should consider revising. I'm not trying to sound mean, though.
