Am I crazy, am I mad, For wanting to know what’s to come; good or bad? ‘She’s not pretty’, ‘Not really my type’, Maybe you should stop generalising and close your pipe. The idea of the ideal woman will not budge, But then they tell us not to hold a grudge. According to the government, women are fine; they have their rights, But behind closed doors, disturbing things happen and innocent ladies have sleepless nights. Call her obnoxious, call her pretentious, After all of this, isn’t she just conscious? Statistics show that males have a higher pay, Let’s just call it a day. Am I changing how you view females at all? Or is this just going to be uncared for feminist writing on the wall? To be treated the same, that’s our aim, If people listened, we wouldn’t have to exclaim! Dear non-feminists, this may seem like a lot of putdowns, But for tolerating all of the nonsense, we deserve crowns.

Dear Non-Feminists
Am I crazy, am I mad, For wanting to know what’s to come; good or bad? ‘She’s not pretty’, ‘Not really my type’, Maybe you should stop generalising and close your pipe. The idea of the ideal woman will not budge, But then they tell us not to hold a grudge. According to the government, women are fine; they have their rights, But behind closed doors, disturbing things happen and innocent ladies have sleepless nights. Call her obnoxious, call her pretentious, After all of this, isn’t she just conscious? Statistics show that males have a higher pay, Let’s just call it a day. Am I changing how you view females at all? Or is this just going to be uncared for feminist writing on the wall? To be treated the same, that’s our aim, If people listened, we wouldn’t have to exclaim! Dear non-feminists, this may seem like a lot of putdowns, But for tolerating all of the nonsense, we deserve crowns.
