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 (1)________ because I'm a woman
Call me a bitch cause 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 (2)__________ (3)____________ or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you only get your fame (4)______________ controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say

CHORUS

This is for my (5)__________ all around the world
Who (6)________ (7)________ across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinkin' all women should be seen not heard
So what do we do girls, (8)__________ out loud
Lettin' 'em know we're gonna stand our ground
So lift you hands higher and wave 'em proud
Take a deep (9)____________ and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can't (10)________ us down

Nobody can hold us down.
Never can never will.

So- (11)________ 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 (12)________ a man enough to handle what I sing
If you look back in history it's a common double standard of society
The guy (13)________ all the glory the (14)________ 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 gets all the (15)__________ and the (16)________ gets named
All my ladies come together and make a change
And start a new beginning for us, everybody sang

CHORUS-repeat

Lil' Kim:
Check it- Here's something I (17)________ can't understand
If the guy have (18)__________ girls then he's the man
He can either give us some head, sex her off
If the girl can do the same, (19)________ she's a whore
But the table's (20)__________ 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 hold me down
I got to keep on movin'
To all my girls (21)________ a man who be tryin' to mack
Do it (22)__________ back to him and let that be that
You need to let him know that his (23)________ is wack
And Lil' Kim and (24)__________________ Aguilera got your back

You're just a little boy
Think you're so cute, so coy
You must talk so big to (25)________ up for smaller things
You're just a little boy
All you do is annoy
You (26)________ talk so big to make up for smaller things

CHORUS-repeat 2X

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