Say It Like Kathleen

**[Verse 1]** I never liked idols, but you made me crack Lipstick sharp and a riot on your back You said *God is gay* in permanent pen Taught me to fight with a Bic and a grin **[Chorus]** Say it like Kathleen — loud and electric Truth with a scream and glitter aesthetic Say it like Kathleen — synths and a mic Punk in her pulse, sugar with spike **[Verse 2]** Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, Julie Ruin Each track a manifesto, feminist tune *Kurt smells like teen spirit*, scrawled on the wall You turned a whisper into a rebel’s call **[Chorus]** Say it like Kathleen — loud and electric Truth with a scream and glitter aesthetic Say it like Kathleen — synths and a mic Punk in her pulse, sugar with spike **[Bridge]** No savior complex, no permission slips Just gum-snapping truth from unruly lips You sing like a siren, soft and unkind A beacon for every unruly mind **[Chorus – last time bigger**] Say it like Kathleen — turn up the sound Flip off the script, flip the whole world around Say it like Kathleen — bass in your chest She never aimed for good, she aimed for best [End]
