Phenomenal Woman

Greek women wonder where my loyalty lies.
When I dream, it is in blue and white and I hear Z Phi's.
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
I say,
It's in the sincerity of my words,
The wit springing from my lips,
The confidence in my step,
The dedication I convey to Scholarship.
I am a woman phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.


I walk into a room just as cool as you please.
And to a man,
Well the Sigma's stand,
While all other Greeks fall to their knees.
Then they swarm around me,
A hive a honey bees.
I say,
It's the truth in my eyes,
And the proud stride in my hips,
The kindness of my heart,
And the commitment to Service.
I am a woman phenomenally.
Phenomenal woman,
That's me.


Greeks have wondered what they see in me.
They try so much, but they can't touch my inner mystery.
When I try to show them,
They say they still can't see.
I say,
It's in the gleam of my smile,
The grace given me from above,
The beauty of my modesty,
The inner need to give and receive Sisterly Love.


Wow, you understand,
Just why my head's not bowed.
I don't shout or jump about
Or have to talk real loud.
When you see me dreaming of Z Phi
It ought to make you proud.
I say,
It's the blue in my heart,
The way I hold the principles I should,
The uniqueness of my thoughts,
The evidence of Finer Womanhood.
'Cause I'm a woman
Phenomenally.
Why else would I be a member of Z Phi B?
