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 because I'm a woman
Call me a bitch (1)__________ 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 (2)________ 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 (3)________ get your (4)________ through controversy
But now it's time for me to (5)________ and give you more to say

CHORUS

This is for my girls all around the world
Who have (6)________ across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard
So what do we do girls, (7)__________ out loud
Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground
So (8)________ you hands higher 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 (9)__________ will.

So- What am I not (10)________________ to say what I'm saying
Are you offended with the message I'm bringin'
Call me whatever 'cause your (11)__________ don't (12)________ a thing
Guess you ain't even a man (13)____________ to handle what I sing
If you look (14)________ in history it's a common double (15)________________ of society
The guy gets all the glory the more he can score
While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore
I don't understand why it's OK,
The guy (16)________ all the glory and the girl gets named
All my (17)____________ (18)________ together and make a change
And start a new (19)__________________ for us, everybody sang

CHORUS-repeat

Lil' Kim:
Check it- Here's something I just can't understand
If the guy have three (20)__________ then he's the man
He can either give us some head, sex her off
If the (21)________ can do the same, then she's a whore
But the table's about to turn
I'll bet my fame on it
Cats take my ideas and put their name on it
It's (22)____________ though, you can't (23)________ me down
I got to keep on movin'
To all my girls with a man who be tryin' to mack
Do it right back to him and let (24)________ be that
You need to let him know that his (25)________ is wack
And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back

You're just a (26)____________ boy
Think you're so cute, so coy
You must talk so big to make up for smaller things
You're just a little boy
All you do is annoy
You must talk so big to make up for smaller things

CHORUS-repeat 2X

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