"Are you a woman?"
She asks
With such disdain
And my heart stumbles
"Are you a woman?"
He mocks me
And for a fleeting moment
I consider
Truth or lie or silence -
My heartbeat quickens
And in a perfect world
I'm loud and clear -
"No"
She asks
With such disdain
And my heart stumbles
"Are you a woman?"
He mocks me
And for a fleeting moment
I consider
Truth or lie or silence -
My heartbeat quickens
And in a perfect world
I'm loud and clear -
"No"
they say "don't dare,
don't you even go there,
cutting off your long hair,
you do as you're told"
don't you even go there,
cutting off your long hair,
you do as you're told"
