about

'HouseWife' is a satirical song about gender roles. It shines a light on mainstream misogyny by taking sexism to its extreme.

lyrics

Lady, when I met ya
You were a damsel in distress.
You had no will for that word 'life'
So I made you my housewife.

A good woman knows her place.
That's right.
I am master, I am law.
you have the right to listen
And that's all.

I know you're sick and tired
of all those types casting
shade in stereo.
Say, girl.

Dinner's always ready,
Whether or not I even come home.
Make up yourself so pretty -
Put your hair up in a bow.

A good wife knows her place.
That's right.
I am master, I am law.
You have the right to listen,
And that's all.

I know you're sick and tired
of all those types casting
shade in stereo.
Patriarch forces you into the dark.
Counter-culture, mono
Oh no, c'mon world.

You don't have to be anything for me
Or anything for this society.
Baby, you could be anything you please,
The master of your own reality.

I know you're sick and tired
of all those types casting
shade in stereo.
I know I I know I know I I know
Say, girl.
