i enjoy being a girl

[pensnest]

I have acquired a rather splendid scarlet T-shirt which bears the following legend:

THINGS WE DID:
Built this city; shot the Sheriff

THINGS WE DIDN'T DO:
Start the fire; shoot the Deputy

THINGS WE WANT TO DO:
Break free; know what love is

THINGS WE WILL DO:
Rock you, Anything for love

THINGS WE WON'T DO:
That.

I should like to make a feminine version. Can you help? I want phrases sung by women, in whatever context. Any suggestions for any of the categories will be considered gratefully, and I will amend this post accordingly, though bear in mind that I am old-fashioned and may not recognise them all!

THINGS WE DID:

THINGS WE DIDN'T DO:

THINGS WE WANT TO DO:
Zig a zig Ah
be loved by you
danced with somebody
have fun
build a snowman

THINGS WE WILL DO:
survive!
come out of the kitchen
always love you

THINGS WE WON'T DO:
be seen and not heard

THINGS WE CAN'T DO:
say no

THINGS WE NEED:
a hero

Interesting how different these are from the bloke version! Thanks for contributions so far, and I would be delighted to have some more.

That is so great! I'll rack my brains for songs, I'm not a musical type of person but I might be able to remember some.

Maybe the lyrics of Cher, Madonna, Dolly Parton, Whitney Houston, Shania Twain, Bonnie Raitt might be worth looking into?

Ah my brain is whirring now:

THINGS WE DID:

THINGS WE DIDN'T DO:

THINGS WE WANT TO DO:
have you for Christmas? Mariah Carey.
Have fun. Cyndi Lauper
Build a snowman. from Frozen.

THINGS WE WILL DO:
Survive. Gloria Gaynor.

THINGS WE WON'T DO:

I was also thinking of Cyndi Lauper! Girls definitely want to have fun.

Yay! When I thought about it, it's the obvious one isn't it.
