Can't Hold Us Down by Christina Aguilera

featuring Lil' Kim

So- What am I not s'pposed to have an opinion
Should I keep quiet just (1)______________ I'm a woman
Call me a bitch cause I (2)__________ 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 (3)__________ little boy would do
Makin' up a few (4)__________ rumors or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you only get your (5)________ through controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say

CHORUS

This is for my girls all around the world
Who (6)________ come across a man who don't respect (7)________ worth
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard
So (8)________ do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground
So lift you hands (9)____________ and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never 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 whatever 'cause your words don't mean a thing
Guess you ain't (10)________ a man enough to handle what I sing
If you look (11)________ in history it's a common (12)____________ standard of society
The guy (13)________ all the (14)__________ the more he can score
While the (15)________ can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's OK,
The guy gets all the glory and the girl gets named
All my ladies come (16)________________ and make a change
And start a new beginning for us, (17)__________________ sang

CHORUS-repeat

Lil' Kim:
Check it- Here's something I just can't understand
If the guy have (18)__________ girls then he's the man
He can (19)____________ give us some head, sex her off
If the girl can do the same, then she's a whore
But the table's about to turn
I'll bet my fame on it
Cats (20)________ my ideas and put their name on it
It's aiight though, you can't hold me down
I got to keep on movin'
To all my girls with a man who be tryin' to mack
Do it (21)__________ back to him and let (22)________ be that
You need to let him know that his name is wack
And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back

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

CHORUS-repeat 2X

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