Woman Is The Nigger Of The World (live at One To One concert)
[One sentence about the next act. Yesterday I said I was concerned we weren't really raising enough money, so he looked at me and said "not only will we perform for free but we'll give you $60000 in cash for the mentally retarded". Ladies and Gentlemen, the band who was here for free, John Lennon and Yoko Ono!

1,2,3,4!]

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

You know, woman is the nigger of the world, yeah
If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave of the slaves, oh yeah
If you believe me scream about it
Woah

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 that she should be
Then we complain that she's too unworldly to be our friend

Well that 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
Oh woman is the slave to the slaves, ooh yeah
If you believe me you better scream
Take 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
This is the one that I can never remember and I think you will get the message any way

You know that woman is the nigger of the world, yeah 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
Connoly was right, we scream it!
Look out!

We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
You know we make her paint her face and dance
Dance, dance, dance
Dance, dance, dance
We make her paint her face and dance

We make her paint her face and dance
