What are you thinking when you're looking at me?   What can you tell me of reality?   I'm only woman, not just a fantasy   And the flesh and blood is warmer than some color transparency      Every woman's a Madonna; every woman's a whore   You can try to reduce me but I'm so much more   I don't want to be your mother; won't be shoved in a drawer   'cause every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore, that's right      What are you thinking when you push me away?   Was it some promise in your youth you made?   Holding out for something or hoping to be saved   Does it make you feel power or are you just afraid of me?      Every woman's a Madonna; every woman's a whore   You can try to reduce me but I'm so much more   I don't want to be your mother; won't be shoved in a drawer   'cause every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore, that's right      I don't know   If you say so   Got so many do's and don'ts my head is spinning   Hey Romeo, j-j-j-just let get go    Maybe everything could use a little sinning      Every woman's a Madonna; every woman's a whore   You can try and reduce me but I'm so much more   I don't want to be your mother; won't be shoved in a drawer   'cause every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore      Every woman's a Madonna; every woman's a whore   You can try and reduce me but I'm so much more   I don't want to be your mother; won't be shoved in a drawer   'cause every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore, that's right      You can try to reduce me but I'm so much more   I don't want to be your mother; won't be shoved in a drawer   'cause every woman's a Madonna, every woman's a whore, that's right
