I was warned as a child of thirteen, not to act too strong
Try to look like you belong but don't push, girl
Save your time and trouble, don't misbehave

I was raised in a 'No you don't' world, overrun with rules
Memorize your lines and move as directed
That's an age old story, everybody knows that's a worn out song

But you and I are changing that tune
We're learning new rhythms from the woman
I said, "The woman in the moon"

Little sister and little brother, keep on pushin'
Don't believe a word about things you heard about
Askin' too much too soon, hey hey hey

'Cause they can hold back the tide

I believe there's a best of both worlds, mixing old and new
Recognizing change is seldom expected

As I long suspected, they believed that strange was a word for wrong
Well, not in my song 'cause you, you and I are changing that tune
We're learning the rhythms from that woman in the moon

Now little sister and little brother, keep on pushin'
Don't believe a word about things you heard about
Askin' too much too soon, hey hey hey hey

'Cause they can hold back the tide
But they can never hold the woman
I said, "The woman in the moon"
