| When I was a young girl
| Cuando era una niña
|
| I went to Catholic school
| yo fui a la escuela catolica
|
| Hung around all the nuns
| Colgado alrededor de todas las monjas
|
| That was so uncool
| Eso fue tan poco genial
|
| All the other girls were wearing
| Todas las otras chicas llevaban
|
| Makeup in fourth grade
| Maquillaje en cuarto grado
|
| But I was not allowed
| pero no me permitieron
|
| I wore anklets and prayed
| Me puse tobilleras y recé

| And started going out with boys

| I was into homework

|
| And trying to get toys
| Y tratando de conseguir juguetes
|
| It was around that time
| Fue por esa época
|
| I discovered what I was
| descubrí lo que era
|
| For instance I said policeman
| Por ejemplo, dije policía
|
| But Paula called them fuzz
| Pero Paula los llamó fuzz

| Then I went to high school
| Luego fui a la escuela secundaria
|
| It really hit me hard
| Realmente me golpeó duro
|
| I started finding out that
| Empecé a descubrir que
|
| They were calling me retard
| me estaban llamando retrasado
|
| In the gymnasium

|
| I was not a hit

|
| There was something really interesting
