Stay - Second Sex

come out, come out and play

looks like a better day

the smoke has flown away, it’s over.

roads are wide, streets are clear

demons dead and nothing to fear

sing it loud so that we can hear its over.

we close our eyes and try to see

we are better than we used to be

and think that days are safer than the nights.

no matter how you wear your skirt

you can always get hurt

and wonder what’s the glory, what’s the pride?

there’s nothing to conquer, no kingdom to find.

there’s nothing so holy, it’s all in your mind.

She’s not your mother,

and she’s not your sister,

and she’s not your daughter

she needs no protector.

come out, come out and play

that’s what the lovers say

good wind is here to stay, it’s over.

take your time and choose your seat

feel your lungs and feel your feet

theories are obsolete, it’s over!

society and consequence.

overriding common sense

future tense and stories of the wild.

no matter how you wear your skirt

you can always get hurt

and wonder what’s the glory, what’s the pride?

there’s nothing to conquer, no kingdom to find.

there’s nothing so holy, it’s all in your mind.

She’s not your mother,

and she’s not your sister,

and she’s not your daughter

she needs no protector.

why do you need her

tell me, why do you need her

why do you need her

she needs not protector
