Woman Is the Nigger of the World Songtext
von John Lennon & Yoko Ono

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 tryna 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
Oh yeah, better scream about it (yeah)

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 unworthy to be our friend


Woah, 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
Oh, woman is the slave
To the slave (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 tellin' her not to be so smart, we put her down for bein′ so dumb
Oh well, 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, she is
If you believe me, better scream about

We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
