People say that women can't be president.
They say men should lead,
After all, Adam was created first.

People say that women can't be police.
They say men are tougher,
Men have more authority.

People say that women can't be rocket scientists.
They say men are smarter,
Stronger, smoother, saner.

People say that women can't be pilots.
Women can't steer,
People's lives are at stake!

People say Women can't be body builders.
We don't look good when we're buff,
And they say we're not strong enough.

People say women can't be doctors,
Or vets who care for birds.
Do you know what I say, though?

I say wake up, wake up, wake up.
Because guess what world,
Women can and women are.
