Eventually Fallon concedes that she can do whatever she wants, which leads to a new, improved and very feminist version of the holiday tune.<\/p>\n<p>In Cyrus\u2019 version, she doesn\u2019t want fancy jewelry, cash, cars or even presents (\u201cI can buy my own damn stuff,\u201d she croons). Instead, the singer asks Santa for a girl\u2019s best friend: equal pay. She also asks to stop being interrupted and for men to stop texting her, um, filthy pictures. Mostly, though, she wants that \u201cignorant jerk\u201d at work to stop grabbing her ass.<\/p>\n<p>Cyrus has been making the TV rounds with Ronson in support of the duo\u2019s single \u201cNothing Breaks Like a Heart,\u201d which is from Ronson\u2019s upcoming new album, due out next year.
