Lyrics: Juliana Hatfield. A Dame With a Rod.

Gimme your hand, get in the van
Do you understand? He's got a plan
He's got a room for one night, so don't try to fight
He's got a knife, no respect for your life

Is it for real? How does it feel?
We made a deal, even paid for your meal
She's got a pain in her head, her eyes are red
Touch her again and you're dead, you heard what she said

I am a heroine, he tried to do her in
I gave it back to him, he won't do it again
I'm a heroine, he tried to do her in
I gave it back to him, he won't do it again

Give me your hand, get in the van
Do you understand? Act like a man
He got a room for one night, so don't try to fight
He's got a knife, no respect for your life

Is it for real ? How does it feel?
We made a deal, even paid for your meal
She's got a pain in her head, the bed is red
Touch her again and you're dead, you heard what I said

I'm a heroine, he tried to do her in
I gave it back to him, he won't do it again
I'm a heroine, he tried to do her in
I gave it back to him, he won't do it again

Don't try to run, you did what you done
I've got a gun and no mercy for scum
You're gonna rot in the ground, not come back around
You pushed yourself down and outta my town

I'm a heroine, he tried to do her in
I gave it back to him, he won't do it again
I'm a heroine, he tried to do her in
I gave it back to him, he won't do it again
