Lyrics
"What's Between Our Legs"
(Verse 1)
Fifty-six years since they wrote it down
Equal pay for women in this town
But the gap's still there, wide as the sea
And they wonder why we're not just letting it be
I woke up today in a world I dreamed
Where it doesn't matter how we're seen
Where the cheque arrives with the same damn name
And we're not playing someone else's game
(Chorus)
Forget what's between our legs, between our thighs
Look at the fire burning in our eyes
Look at the work, the love, the fight
Look at us standing in our own light
Forget what's between us, see what's within
The revolution? Baby, it begins
With every woman who dares to say
"I'm worth the same, I'm here to stay"
(Verse 2)
I lost a privilege I never chose
The kind that comes with the clothes you impose
But here's the truth they don't want to tell—
That privilege was always a prison cell
Now I walk free in these panties and tights
Seeing the world in a different light
And the gap I see? It's a canyon wide
Filled with the tears of those who tried
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
1970, they raised the pen
Fifty-six years, and we're still fighting then
My Nana taught me, my heroines too—
The fight's not over till it's through for you
For every woman who came before
For every sister still keeping score
I'm standing here, in my truth, my skin
The revolution? It's already beginning
(Final Chorus - building)
So forget what's between our legs, between our thighs
See the universe burning in our eyes
See the daughters, the mothers, the trans sisters too
See all of us, fighting for you
Forget what divides us, see what unites
The equal world? We're building it nights
After nights, after days, after fifty-six years
We're still here—and we'll stay here
(Outro - spoken, soft)
1970. 2026. And still we rise.
