Can't Hold Us Down by Christina Aguilera

featuring Lil' Kim

So- What am I not s'pposed to have an opinion
Should I (1)________ quiet (2)________ because I'm a woman
Call me a bitch (3)__________ I speak what's on my mind
Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled

When a female fires back
Suddenly big talker don't know how to act
So he does what every little boy would do
Makin' up a few false rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you (4)________ get your fame through controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you (5)________ to say

CHORUS

This is for my girls all around the world
Who have come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard
So (6)________ do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground
So lift you (7)__________ higher and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, (8)__________ will
Can't hold us down

Nobody can hold us down.
Never can never will.

So- What am I not supposed to say what I'm saying
Are you offended with the message I'm bringin'
Call me (9)________________ 'cause your words don't mean a thing
Guess you ain't even a man (10)____________ to handle what I sing
If you look (11)________ in history it's a (12)____________ double standard of society
The guy gets all the glory the more he can score
While the girl can do the (13)________ and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's OK,
The guy gets all the glory and the (14)________ gets named
All my ladies (15)________ together and make a change
And start a new beginning for us, everybody sang

CHORUS-repeat

Lil' Kim:
Check it- Here's something I (16)________ can't understand
If the guy have (17)__________ girls then he's the man
He can either give us some head, sex her off
If the girl can do the same, then she's a whore
But the table's (18)__________ to turn
I'll bet my fame on it
Cats take my ideas and put their name on it
It's aiight though, you can't (19)________ me down
I got to keep on movin'
To all my girls with a man who be tryin' to mack
Do it (20)__________ back to him and let that be that
You need to let him know that his name is wack
And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got (21)________ back

You're just a little boy
Think you're so cute, so coy
You must talk so big to (22)________ up for smaller things
You're (23)________ a (24)____________ boy
All you do is annoy
You must talk so big to (25)________ up for smaller things

CHORUS-repeat 2X

Can't hold us down!
(repeat and (26)________ out)
