Lyrics for woman down
First woman down was your mother She did condone how you behave All you could see was your father His disrespect was in her face Next woman down was your sister Her silence did corroborate She took her cues from the climate And never knew another way Who do you take me for Calling all woman haters We've lowered the bar on the Behavior that we will take, come on now Calling all lady haters Why must you vilify us Are you willing to clean the slate? Woman down Woman down Next woman down was your lover She takes your spite at value face Even her hair length and color Gives you the impulse to repeat Who do you take me for Calling all woman haters We've lowered the bar on the Behavior that we will take, come on now Calling all lady haters Why must you vilify us Are you willing to clean the slate? Woman down Woman down Next woman down is your daughter A stranger to being debased She has a new lease and limit On the abuse she'll tolerate Who do you take me for Calling all lady haters Why must you vilify us Are you willing to clean the slate? Woman down Woman down Down, down, down... Woman down
