Lyrics
Woman Power
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You've heard of woman nation,
Well, that's coming, baby.
What we need is the power of trust,
That it's coming.
You've heard of the law of selection,
Well, that's how we're gonna do it, baby.
We allow men who wanna join us
The rest can just stay by themselves.
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
Two thousand years of male society,
Laying fear and tyranny.
Seeking grades and money,
Clinging to values vain and phony.
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
Do you know that one day you lost your way, man?
Do you know that some day you have to pay, man?
Have you anything to say, man, except
"make no mistake about it, i'm the president, you hear?
I wanna make one thing clear, i'm the president, you hear?"
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
You don't hear them singing songs,
You don't see them living life,
'cause they've got nothing to say, but
"make no mistake about it, i'm the president, you hear?
I wanna make one thing clear, i'm the president, you hear?"
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
You may be the president now,
You may still be a man.
But you must also be a human,
So open up and join us in living.
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
In the coming age of feminine society,
We'll regain our human dignity.
We'll lay some truth and clarity
And bring back nature's beauty.
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
Ev'ry woman has a song to sing,
Ev'ry woman has a story to tell.
Make no mistake about it, brothers,
We women have the power to move mountains.
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
Did you have to cook the meals?
Did you have to knit?
Did you have to care for life instead of killing?
There's no mistake about it, sisters,
We women have the power to change the world.
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power! (woman power!)
Woman power!
Woman power!
Woman power! (woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
(woman power!)
