I'm just here for dictation
I don't want to be a sensation
Bein' on 60 Minutes
Wasn't worth your 15 minutes

Don't touch my breast
I'm just working at my desk
Don't put me to the test
I'm just doing my best

Shopping at MaxFields
Power for you to wield
Dreams of going to the Grammys
Till you poked me with your whammy

You spin the discs,
Now you're moving your wrist
I'm just from Encino
Why are you so meano?

I'm just here for dictation
And not your summer vacation
You really like to shmooze
Well now you're on the news

I'm from Sherman Oaks
Just a wheel in the spokes
But I ain't giving you head
In a Sunset bungalow

Roshumba, Judith, Paulina, Kathy,
Vendella, Naomi, Ashley, Angie, Stacey, Gail
I'm swimming
I'm swimming
I'm swimming

    I always thought it was "us women" because of the nature of the song, but it probably is "I'm swimming", which also makes sense, albeit less on-the-nose (it is called Swimsuit Issue...). Fascinating song to listen to now, in the era of Weinstein and Trump; SY were always so far ahead of their time, both musically and lyrically.
