I Wish I Was a Riot Grrrl

I wish I was a riot grrrl, a riot grrrl punk

Fighting for equality and smearing all the chumps

Across the walls of the local clubs

Fueled by feminism and hard drugs

I like to talk politics I like to strike fear

In all of the oppressed men that'd stand in my way

I'm not your plaything

I'm a motherfucking queen because who needs a king

I wish I was a riot grrrl, feminazi punk

Not your average ordinary day job girl

I won't take your abuse

Quit acting like a bitch and making up excuses

Girl, hanging with Bikini Kill

Female empowerment fills up the room I'm in

A never ending movement

All of these things make me wish I was a riot grrrl

I wish I was a riot grrrl, that would be cool

Taking what you know and breaking all the rules

Screaming in your face till your ears get tender

Teaching you a thing about race and gender

I'd like to kick your ass

Yeah that sounds fair

Hiding my brutality behind dyed hair

Men with guitars they don't know shit

And if they wanna talk shit they can meet me in the pit

Girl, hanging with Bratmobile

If I can't hit those high notes, I'll just squeal them

Into the crowd, its where I belong

Undercover feminine punk rock

Called riot grrrl

Riot grrrl
