lyrics

To Be a Woman

I get paid less for the same work
I’m told to smile by every single jerk

It’s fun to be a woman

I get catcalls walking down the street
from all these folks I’d never want to meet.

It’s fun to be a woman
Oh, it’s fun to be a woman

They pass these laws that make it hard to be
They rule my uterus like it’s their property

It’s fun to be a woman

They say be glad you don’t live in Iran
Well our mullahs are covered in spray tan

It’s fun to be a woman
Oh, it’s fun to be a woman

We can’t even get our ERA
“But her emails!” is what they say

I’m suppose to wear a size 2
And be younger and sexy
and not say, “No,” to to you

It’s fun to be a woman

I hear there’s a thing called legitimate rape
Like all that other stuff is merely knee scrapes

It’s fun to be a woman
Oh it’s fun to be a woman

This song might piss you off
but I don’t really care
You got your judge
who really likes his beer.

It’s fun to be a woman
Oh it’s fun to be a woman
One more time
It’s fun to be a woman
