LYRICS
Verse:
Always expected to wear makeup and wear heels
If we don’t, it’s political, can’t appeal
Menstruation, masturbation, natural cycles are both shamed
Barely wearing clothes, had a drink, guilty is claimed
If you support women it’s white allocishets
If you help us once you say we owe you many debts
You like strong women unless they call out your behavior
You talk shit ‘bout women but would you say it to your mother
Pre-chorus:
There’s a reason we don’t go
To the bathroom alone
We could get attacked
For all we know
There’s safety in numbers
So we don’t end up in Ambers
We are the deer
Afraid of the hunters
Chorus:
You say you want to help
You say you’re on our side
You say you got our backs
But then you run and hide
Keep your pink balloons (and)
Keep your fancy signs (yeah)
We don’t want your pity (no)
We don’t want your lies
We want equal pay (and)
We want equal rights (yeah)
You ain’t fooling us (no)
You’re a fake ally
Verse:
We don’t get superheroes cause it offends men
They can be hot but not in the bullpen
Can’t have female leads or they’re called Mary Sues
You only support us when it benefits you
All ethnicities haven’t been able to vote
For a full century cause “men not women” they wrote
Men claim the two sexes have an alliance
But when we try to voice a thought you command silence
Pre-chorus:
Don’t like feminism
Cause it ain’t about men
But mark my words
We ain’t in a playpen
Since we’re not dudes
If we’re a slut or prude
We’re damned for life
And considered shrewd
Chorus:
You say you want to help
You say you’re on our side
You say you got our backs
But then you run and hide
Keep your pink balloons (and)
Keep your fancy signs (yeah)
We don’t want your pity (no)
We don’t want your lies
We want equal pay (and)
We want equal rights (yeah)
You ain’t fooling us (no)
You’re a fake ally
Bridge:
This ain’t for the cis men
Who think I’m trying to educate them
Cause they’re the bastards who made us
Have to deal with this and
This is for my fellow women who don’t realize the condition of the world we’re currently livin’ and what we need to be doin’ to secure our freedoms for all of time cause if we don’t work for a week the world would fall to crime
Since we hold that power
Let’s dethrone all the cowards
