Cover up from head to toe
Unless it's what you want to do
Slap a cover on it and don't be a slut
Only we can rip it off
Wanna wear it short?
Whore!
Want to wear it long?
Prude!
Forget what you want to do
Don't say that, it's impolite
Don't do that, it's not "lady like"
But we can grab you by the p***y any day of the week
'Cause it's just how we're wired
Cover up that titty
Unless it's for me
They're for Victoria's Secret ads
Not for babies
And those words you want to say?
Cover those up too
Mark 'em up with asterisks just like we tell you to
It's called ********
Isn't that such a word?
Been here since the dawn of time
You are seen, not heard
So listen up
Shut your mouth
Close your legs
Unless I'm around
Don't let anyone use you
Unless it's me
You don't need equality
Really I'm all you need
