1.
Two sets of rules I see, one for you and one for me. Everything that makes you happy, seems to cause me misery Why, Oh Why....why can't we just be friends.
2.
outsiders 01:36
We are the outsiders, we are the wind riders We are the outliers, scorched in the fire. We are the refugees, from patriarchy We're burned in effigy, we're dying to be free.
3.
The pain he brought to me, set me free, set me free (x2) At the end of the day, like a bird, I'll fly away (x2) To the stars in the sky, I'll rise, I'll rise (x2) Turning...spinning.....watching...weaving...spiraling....(x2)
4.
Burn it Down 04:18
Chorus: burn it down (x4) Chemical reaction...nothing but distraction...give him no reaction....burn him down Physical attraction...ain't no satisfaction...we can't get no traction in this town We don't need no white man...telling us what we can...think and what we cannot do We dont need no rich man...holding out his big hand...taking things from me and you.
5.
NAMALT 05:43
You hear about these guys that are heroes Save someone's life or they're brave in war But they all treat us like we're objects Where's the ones that stand up for the girls Chorus ...and they say, "Not all men are like that, Honey, and you can find one if you try. Don't go bein' a man hater, Baby!" They say there's good men, but they lie" I say, "Male violence is a killer" One woman dies everyday At hands that were supposed to love her "Not all men", is what you say. Don't take much for a man to be good Go to church or mow the grass Women are s'posed to be subjugatin' Happy being treated like second class When you say good man, you mean someone Who won't cheat on you or drink But all men have a hierarchy And they're on top of us they think

motherland 03:10
We are building Motherland, we are building Motherland With our hearts and with our hands We are building Mother...Mother land Yes we can, oh, yes, we can We can build a womyn's land Stand up now, all Sister's stand Take your place on womyn's, womyns' land Can you see, oh , can you see? What womyn's land can come to be. With our hears and with our minds We'll build a safer place for womyn-kind
7.
Amazing amazons, we can be strong, stand up to right the wrong. Womyn-kind must take a stand, the moment is here at hand Our future lies ahead un-manned, and we can be free...to be you and me. Time for girls to set the pace, hating ends with love's embrace The world will be a better place...No longer betrayed...it's time we have our day.
8.
Chorus Bring 'em home, bring, 'em home, Bring 'em home, our girls and women. In our mother's home, we are afraid of or fathers Out in the street, we are afraid of our brothers Inside our homes, we are afraid of our lovers No where on earth are we safe from the others Take back our power, save our daughters From the inujustice of the world of man Inside the schools we are afraid of the shooters Guru's, priest,and pastors take advantage of our ears In courts and prisons, we're afraid of our 'protectors' In the workplace, we're afraid of the bosses Throw down our fear, speak out the truth Save our sisters, and ourselves, change the tide, stand up and say NO!
9.
Let Them Fly 05:16
Chorus: You've got to let 'em fly...you've got to let 'em go You've got to set the world right from the get go When you try, you will succeed, You are so much more than they believe The world has a way of breaking us down...Holding us back, pushing us around You can do it, do anything...anything you want, anything you can dream Life has a way of turning out wrong...holding us back from where we belong You can change it, change anything...anything you decide, no need to hide.
10.
Yes we can 05:11
Chorus Yes we can, yes we can. We can build a womyn's land, yes we can. With a little help from the Goddess, we'll rebuild a broken promise and blaze the trail before us, yes we can. We'll walk through the forests in our minds And the streams will flow uphill all the time With the animals and trees, the winds of change upon the breeze We'll make a safer place for womyn-kind We'll Dance 'round the fire in the moonlight Drawing power as we gather for the fight All the elements are there...fire, water, earth and air, Wild womyn brewing magic in the night We'll be free of oppression for all time No abuse, no poverty, no lies. We can talk about our feelings and there'll be no more glass ceilings Our Sisters are our family and tribe.
