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)__________ (2)________ (3)______________ I'm a woman
Call me a (4)__________ 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 (5)________ how to act
So he does what (6)__________ little boy (7)__________ do
Makin' up a few false (8)____________ or two
That for (9)________ is not a man to me, slanderin' (10)__________ for popularity
It's sad you only get your fame through controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say

CHORUS

This is for my girls all (11)____________ the world
Who have (12)________ across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinkin' all women should be (13)________ not heard
So what do we do girls, shout out loud
Lettin' 'em know 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 hold us down

Nobody can (14)________ 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 even a man enough to handle (15)________ I sing
If you look (16)________ in (17)______________ it's a (18)____________ 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 (19)____________________ why it's OK,
The guy gets all the (20)__________ and the girl gets named
All my ladies come together and (21)________ a change
And start a new beginning for us, (22)__________________ 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 (23)____________ give us some head, sex her off
If the (24)________ 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 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 right back to him and let that be that
You need to let him know (25)________ his (26)________ is wack
And Lil' Kim and Christina Aguilera got your back

You're just a (27)____________ 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 (28)________ so big to make up for smaller things

CHORUS-repeat 2X

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