Women's Work

A woman's work is never done
That's what they like to say
Well maybe if you did your part
The work would go away

Cause we're always looking out, always checking in
Always stepping forward, always leading him
And if I just did half, that shit would never end
God, it must be nice to never do your bit

I'm so sick and tired of pouring everything I have
Into the depths of selfish men who never give it back
Why does everything you do feel like something I have to plan
I end up last on a list of tasks for which I never asked

I do my best to make it sweet
Make it easy as I can
But why does it all fall on me
And you get to reap what you didn't plant

I hate I have to push, I hate I have to fight
I hate I have to put myself out on the line
A thousand times or more before you're on my side
I wait so long for just a second of your time

I'm so sick and tired of pouring everything I have
Into the depths of selfish men who never give it back
Why does everything you do feel like something I have to plan
I end up last on a list of tasks for which I never asked

Hey, yeah, hey, yeah
Ooh, yeah, yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I hate I have to push, I hate I have to fight
I hate I have to put myself out on the line
A thousand times or more, just need you on my side
It must be so nice to never have to fucking apologise

I'm so sick and tired of pouring everything I have
Into the depths of selfish men who never give it back
Why does everything you do feel like something I have to plan
I end up last on a list of tasks for which I never asked
Say you can't do half, well I say fuck that
Can't profit off our backs
Get what you deserve, yeah, a woman's work
Will leave you in the past
