m.j. hibbett & the validators - fat was a feminist issue lyrics

Loading...

the purpose of the fight
i thought, for women’s rights
was to free a gender from being merely decoration
i thought that all those books said
you shouldn’t judge a woman by the way that she looks
equal civil rights are only half of emanc-p-tion

but when i got into a paper shop
i’ll see a copy of men’s health
there’s always some bloke in black and white
on the cover laughing to himself
or is he? is he laughing at you and me
and our imperfect physique?
has body fascism grown
a y chromosome?

and if you thought that
fat was a feminist issue
fat was a feminist issue
fat was a feminist issue
that does not apply to men, then
think again

time was when a bloke
needed a razor blade and a bar of soap
and would wonder at women’s neuroses on the quiet
but now all that has changed
we’re equally deranged
how many men here i wonder have been on a diet?

and the fashionistas say
“this is bl–dy grate
finally we can make men’s fashion ‘cost-effective’
we’ll send them to the gym
give them panic attacks about the state of their skin
it’s another half a nation that we can turn anorexic”

and if you thought that
fat was a feminist issue
fat was a feminist issue
fat was a feminist issue
that does not apply to men, then
think again

if all you see are calories
and what you’re allowed for dinner
don’t be amazed if it’s your brains
not your waist that is getting thinner
we’ve all been duped by the pursuit
of perfect pecs and six packs
into the trap that women had
been stuck inside forever

so let’s burn our bras
and our membership cards
of top shop and the gym
coming soon – the bra for him
we’ll be trussed up soon enough
you mark my words

and if you thought that
fat was a feminist issue
fat was a feminist issue
fat was a feminist issue
that does not apply to men, then
think again
