The world, it needs an anthem For all of womankind The song to fight, the song to right The wrongs of all of time So we put pen to paper And wrote all through the night A gorgeous ode to feminism Well within our sights But this is pretty nuanced stuff And putting it all in one song was tough And that's why This is not a feminist song We tried real hard, but it took too long This is not a feminist song Cause we were scared we would do it wrong We know women need an anthem A song to call their own But we didn't write that anthem We went home Every woman has a struggle And every struggle's real But just try and write a song that captures Every woman's deal Here's us running in the sand And here's a bunch of lens flares And an old woman's hands Not to call a woman old Or judge a woman's hands We know a woman shouldn't be Reduced to just her hands We stepped right into that trap It's so hard to navigate this crap And that's why This is not a feminist song So technically it can't be wrong This is not a feminist song I feel like we've been singing so long Our ancestors, they fought for us So they deserve a song But this is not that song So move along Now here's some powerful footage For a song we did not write It's malala, maya angelou And madeleine albright And rbg, she taught me That women can be strong And that women have the right to choose To bail on this whole song, oh, yeah And that's why This is not a feminist song We're just women singing a song But doesn't that make it a feminist song? I guess this was feminist all along This is a feminist song Tweet it, hashtag #feministsong Where are the men in this feminist song? An excellent point, now move along Cause now it's time for you at home To weigh in on this song And tell us if we handled it all wrong This is a tough and tricky landmine of a song
