[Verse] The headline screams that hard-lefter men are suffering a nationwide irritation Just for seeing a director toast a win for the pride of a hockey-loving nation But I’m standing here at twenty-five just trying to do my duty and my honorable part Asking where the tax money goes with a working man’s conscience and a heavy heart I said if you pay your dues you got a right to be critical of the elite and the high But a woman twice my age looked me in the eye just to tell me a goddamn lie. [Instrumental Break] [Verse] She told me to shut the fuck up and that the secretary don't work every single hour Defending the seventy-five thousand dollar flight and the reckless abuse of the power She told me to tuck my mangina in while she spat on the rights of her own kind A hard-right archetype with a hollow soul and a partisan-poisoned mind It sends my stomach into a queasy churn to see the way the lines are being drawn Where the dignity of women is being sold for a seat on a government pawn. [Instrumental Break] [Verse] Eight out of twelve gold medals were brought home by the women’s sweat and their grace Only to have the men on the team downplay the glory and laugh right in their face And here’s a woman old enough to be my mother telling me that I’m the one who’s weak Because I won’t stand by while the leadership class turns the truth into something sleek I’d happily reject a partner like that because I’m looking for a moral and a spiritual code Not someone who carries the water for the predators on this dark and dusty road. [Instrumental Break] [Verse] So keep your slogans and your maps to the North where the bathrooms and the air are cold I’ll stay right here with the humanity and the truth that’s finally being told It’s a sad state of affairs when a Gen Z man cares more for the women than the ones who’ve seen the years While the elite are flying high on a jet fueled by the public’s taxes and their tears I’ll keep my thinking cap on tight while the scrutiny puts your bitter heart to the test Because I’m on the side of the vulnerable and I ain't gonna give the cruelty a rest.
