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 speak what's on my mind
Guess it's (2)____________ for you to swallow if I sat and smiled

When a (3)____________ fires back
Suddenly big talker don't know how to act
So he does what (4)__________ little boy would do
Makin' up a few false (5)____________ or two
That for sure is not a man to me, slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you only get your (6)________ through controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you (7)________ 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 should be seen 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 (9)________ (10)____________ and say it loud
Never can, never will
Can't hold us down

Nobody can (11)________ 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 (13)____________ what I sing
If you (14)________ 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 (15)____________________ 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, everybody sang

CHORUS-repeat

Lil' Kim:
Check it- Here's something I just can't understand
If the guy (17)________ three (18)__________ 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 right back to him and let (21)________ be that
You need to let him know (22)________ his name is wack
And Lil' Kim and Christina (23)________________ got (24)________ back

You're just a (25)____________ boy
Think you're so cute, so coy
You must talk so big to (26)________ up for smaller things
You're just a little boy
All you do is annoy
You (27)________ talk so big to (28)________ up for smaller things

CHORUS-repeat 2X

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