"Man's World (The Oldest Prejudice)" lyrics - HEART ATTACK
Out of the womb
Your blanket is pink or blue
You're taught that the female is less
By the T.V. where she's half undressed
At school's the next breeding ground
She's so pretty while he's so smart
Saw you there
Molded
By one another
Suppressed
Convenient for the others
Everyday
We see her degraded
Isn't that
How it's supposed to be?
NO!
You've been desensitized
We're all victims if we want equality
We must learn to say no!
The right to vote don't mean shit
She still has no say
Because a house full of men
Take away her right to choose
They're calling abortion a sin
Whose body is it anyway?
With forced labour
Molded
By one another
Suppressed
Convenient for the others
Everyday
We see her degraded
Isn't that
How it's supposed to be?
NO!
You've been desensitized
We're all victims if we want equality
We must learn to say no!
Does beauty only exist in youth?
When it's gone is there nothing left?
Why doesn't anybody ask for more?
Like a person with a mind
How can this murder called rape
Still exist in a civilised place?
The cops and the judge are all men
Commit the crime over again
"Hope you believe your guilt's real
You asked for it honey" they feel
Fuck the fear that keeps us in chains
Rape the roles we continue to play
Still patriarchy reigns supreme
When does the protest begin?
Right now!
