Adam's Rib

Melanie Doane

Once upon a time

I was just a little bone

I was just a little tiny rib

and the rib cage was my home

Somedays I'd wonder how it would feel

to be my own person

to eat my own meals



I never had to make a plan

just be a little piece of a bigger man



And Adam rocked my world

I was his biggest fan

No such thing as being a girl

He had the whole world in his hands



Now that was the life

No worries no pain

Just stay in my place

and grow a little more each day

I never had to make a plan

just be a little piece of a bigger man



And Adam rocked my world

I was his biggest fan

No such thing as being a girl

He had the whole world in his hands



Then I started to wonder

What's this spell I might be under

It's time to break away

It's time to feed this hunger



Never had to take a stand

just be a little piece of a bigger man
