I've always wanted a man To make me a sandwich, To cry like a girl, To clean my house, To let me drive his truck, To listen to my ideas, To corroborate instead of dominate And make me feel his equal. I've always wanted a relationship To follow God's design. I'll never be inferior Even with a man at my side. I've never believed modern women Should 'be silent', 'Stay in their place'. I lied to myself for years, But religion should be disgraced. Yeah, Maybe I'm sensitive. I won't laugh at these jokes For the same reason I don't find *** trafficking, Domestic violence, Or the fact that it took years for women to vote in this country Funny. You can laugh your way to a lonely life.

To a Lonely Man
I've always wanted a man To make me a sandwich, To cry like a girl, To clean my house, To let me drive his truck, To listen to my ideas, To corroborate instead of dominate And make me feel his equal. I've always wanted a relationship To follow God's design. I'll never be inferior Even with a man at my side. I've never believed modern women Should 'be silent', 'Stay in their place'. I lied to myself for years, But religion should be disgraced. Yeah, Maybe I'm sensitive. I won't laugh at these jokes For the same reason I don't find *** trafficking, Domestic violence, Or the fact that it took years for women to vote in this country Funny. You can laugh your way to a lonely life.
