woman is the nigger of the world - elephant's memory lyrics

Woman is the Nigger of the world
Yes she is: Think about it.
Woman is the Nigger of the world
Think about it, do something about it.

We make her paint her face and dance
If she won't be a slave and say that she don't love us.
If she's real we say she's trying to be a man
While putting her down we pretend that she's above us.

Woman is the Nigger of the world; Yes she is:
If you don't believe me take a look at the one you're with.
Woman is the slave of the slaves; Oh Yea!
You better scream about it ... Yea!

We make her bed and raise our children
And then we leave her flat for being a fat old Mother Hen
We tell her home is the only place she should be
Then we complain that she's too unworthy to be our friend

Woman is the Nigger of the world; Yes she is:
If you don't believe me take a look at the one you're with.
Oh, Woman is the slave to the slaves... yea, All right!

Hit it!

We insult her every day on TV
Then wonder why she has no guts or confidence.
When she's young we kill her will to be free
While telling her not to be so smart,
We put her down for being so dumb.

Woman is the Nigger of the world; Yes she is:
If you don't believe me take a look at the one you're with.
Oh, Woman is the slave to the slaves... yes she is...
If you believe me, you better scream about it.

We make her paint her face and dance!
