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 (1)__________ just 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 (2)____________ don't know how to act
So he (3)________ what every little boy (4)__________ do
Makin' up a few false (5)____________ or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' (6)__________ for popularity
It's sad you only get your fame through controversy
But now it's time for me to (7)________ and give you more to say

CHORUS

This is for my (8)__________ all around the world
Who have come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinkin' all women (9)____________ be seen not heard
So what do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin' 'em (10)________ we're gonna stand our ground
So lift you hands higher and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can't (11)________ us down

Nobody can hold us down.
Never can (12)__________ 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 even a man enough to handle what I sing
If you look back in history it's a common double standard 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 (13)________ all the glory and the girl (14)________ 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 just can't understand
If the guy have three 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 (15)__________ to turn
I'll bet my (16)________ 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 (17)________ on movin'
To all my (18)__________ (19)________ a man who be tryin' to mack
Do it (20)__________ back to him and let that be that
You need to let him (21)________ that his (22)________ is wack
And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back

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

CHORUS-repeat 2X

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