STAY IN PLACE

from C.L.I.T. Fest benefit CD by Plastic Cross

	/

lyrics

gender roles – maintain control
programming – society

subjugate – with status quo
objectify – must fit the mold

prestigious bigot chauvinists
declare who’s worth – more or less

but the choice to change will define the times
and you got yours and I got mine

men create standards and build walls
women must fight for who they are

myth of virgin birth, hijab covered face
an acquitted rape, she was asking for it

submissive and weak, like stepford wives
who want and need, it's slavery

like mannequin displays, that move animatronically
pace down the runway, systematically with grace
got hairspray on the brain, which glues the mentality
of a cosmetic glamour face to make sure things stay in their place
