you think I wouldn't have him
unless I could have him by the balls
you think I just dish it out

you don't think I take it at all
you think I am stronger
you think I walk taller than the rest

you think I'm usually wearing the pants
just 'cause I rarely wear a dress


well...

when you look at me

you see my purpose,
see my pride
you think I just saddle up my anger

and ride and ride and ride
you think I stand so firm
you think I sit so high on my trusty steed

let me tell you
I'm usually face down on the ground
when there's a stampede


I'm no !@(%e
at least, not last time I checked

I'm too easy to roll over
I'm too easy to wreck
I just write about

what I should have done
I just sing
what I wish I could say

and hope somewhere
some woman hears my music
and it helps her through her day


'cause some guy designed
these shoes I use to walk around

some big man's business turns a profit
every time I lay my money down
some guy designed the room I'm standing in

another built it with his own tools
who says I like right angles?
these are not my laws

there are not my rules

I'm no !@(%e

I still answer to the other half of the race
I don't fool myself
like I fool you

I don't have the power
we just don't run this place
