woman down (live in berlin)
Alanis Morissette - Woman Down
First woman down was your mother
She did condone how you behave
All you could see was your father
His disrespect was in her face
Next woman down was your sister
Her silence did corroborate
She took her cues from the climate
And never knew another way
Who do you take me for
Calling all woman haters
Weve lowered the bar on the behavior that we will take
Come on now
Calling all lady haters
Why must you vilify us
Are you willing to clean the slate
Woman down
Woman down
Next woman down was your lover
She takes your spite at value face
Even her hair length and color
Gives you the impulse to repeat
Who do you take me for
Calling all woman haters
Weve lowered the bar on the behavior that we will take
Come on now
Calling all lady haters
Why must you vilify us
Are you willing to clean the slate
Woman down
Woman down
Woman down
Next woman down is your daughter
A stranger to being debased
She has a new lease and limit
On the abuse shell tolerate
Who do you take me for
Calling all woman haters
Weve lowered the bar on the behavior that we will take
Come on now
Calling all lady haters
Why must you vilify us
Are you willing to clean the slate
Woman down
Woman down
