FEMININE RAGE
(One, two, three)
Athena cursed Medusa just because she deemed her suddenly impure
Athena cursed Medusa just to spite Poseidon and settle her scores
Poseidon didn't learn a thing, in fact I'm not so sure he even cared
Then Athena cursed Medusa to a life of taming snakes within her hair
Anne Boleyn and Antoinette, did they deserve to lose their heads
Or was it just a wish of angry men?
Ophelia was driven mad, no shit, her lover killed her dad
Just so you know, I'd probably do the same
And you wonder why there's so much feminine rage
Helen was abducted just because she was the object of a man
And Circe was abandoned 'cause her father never cared to understand
Each version of the story feels like men get all the glory in the end
Then we grow up and read about 'em and villainize the victims in our heads
Romeo and Juliet, she wasn't even 14 yet
Her father tried to marry her away
Persephone was forced to go, to live with Hades down below
And in the end, it's her who took the blame
In every story ever told, it always ends the same
Anne Boleyn and Antoinette, did they deserve to lose their heads
Or was it just a wish of angry men?
Ophelia was driven mad, no shit, her lover killed her dad
Just so you know, I'd probably do the same
And you wonder why there's so much feminine rage
Athena cursed Medusa just because she deemed her suddenly impure
Athena cursed Medusa just to spite Poseidon and settle her scores
Poseidon didn't learn a thing, in fact I'm not so sure he even cared
Then Athena cursed Medusa to a life of taming snakes within her hair
Anne Boleyn and Antoinette, did they deserve to lose their heads
Or was it just a wish of angry men?
Ophelia was driven mad, no shit, her lover killed her dad
Just so you know, I'd probably do the same
And you wonder why there's so much feminine rage
Helen was abducted just because she was the object of a man
And Circe was abandoned 'cause her father never cared to understand
Each version of the story feels like men get all the glory in the end
Then we grow up and read about 'em and villainize the victims in our heads
Romeo and Juliet, she wasn't even 14 yet
Her father tried to marry her away
Persephone was forced to go, to live with Hades down below
And in the end, it's her who took the blame
In every story ever told, it always ends the same
Anne Boleyn and Antoinette, did they deserve to lose their heads
Or was it just a wish of angry men?
Ophelia was driven mad, no shit, her lover killed her dad
Just so you know, I'd probably do the same
And you wonder why there's so much feminine rage
