Woman Is The Nigger Of The World
Lennon, John
Wonsaponatime (1998)

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
we 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
ah yeah better scream about it.

We make her bear 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 unworldly 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
woman is the slave to the slaves
yeah alright, hit it!

We insult her every day on TV
and 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
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.
