Don’t Try to Please Me
You could have said no
Instead of just going through the motions
How far will you go
With this over the top devotion?

The road of least resistance
Won't take our love the distance
Baby, it's no good to me
Unless you fight for all you can be

If you see yourself as small
Then that's how tall you will be
You can't measure up at all
If you're just trying to please me
Don't try to please me

So take a big breath
It's your space as much as mine, yeah
We're at our best
When we're laying it on the line, yeah

I don't need no cushion
I love it when you're pushin'
'Cause baby, when you're feeling strong
That's what really turns me on
If you see yourself as small
Then that's how tall you will be
You can't measure up at all
If you're just trying to please me
Don't try to please me
