Icon for Hire "Now You Know" Слова песни

Now You Know

Seem like everywhere I go, everybody wanna knowWhat’s it like to be a girl, in the music world

The scene is so sexist, believe me I get it, we’d probably sell more records if I flaunted my ass and chest but forget itI work like one of the boys, and I’m as true as they getBut I’m a lady through and through, like give me some creditI knew I’d regret it if I tried to blend in and pretendBe something other than I amLike have you noticed I’m a womanDidn’t come to downplay it, or to play it up eitherAnd I’m not trying pick a fight or be nobody's leaderBut it feels like everybody’s just a little too interestedIn the fact that females can indeed make musicOur interviews, our bios, - they all make it a point"Female Fronted Band, from Decatur, Illinois"And just once, I’d like to see some other band’s resume go out of their way to say they’re fronted by a male, ok?And while we’re on it, let me sayWomen don’t all sound the sameWho gave us the idea that "Female Fronted” is a genre anyway?

Seem like everywhere I go, everybody wanna knowWhat’s it like to be a girl, in the music worldWanna make it disappear, tell 'em what they wanna hearIf truth ain't pretty will you all stay with meWill you love me, love me ugly

And I know it’s not fair, and I can’t complain'Cause with girl in our band, people don’t look awayBut you know what, it feels like they look just a little too longStare me up and down, forget to listen to the songI take the stage and before I even open my mouth, the audience assumes that they got us all figured out"Oh your band’s got a chick, must be some kinda trickThere’s no way she got this far without sucking somebody's"Did you really think that’s how it works, I’m not fucking eye candyI’m here to do my job, I’ll be the last man standingBoys in crowd asking, for me to flash them, well here you go, news flashYou’re ignorant and that’s thatI bet you’d never say that to your little sisterThe media’s got you all jacked up, little mister'Cause girls in my position can perpetuate the cycleWalking a tightrope, don’t know which way to goHypersexualize, or downplay your femininityDress like the dudes, or pray to God that you’re prettyAre you kidding me? And I don’t even know who’s to blameBeauty sells, I buy it too, I’m trying to sell it back it you

Seem like everywhere I go, everybody wanna knowWhat’s it like to be a girl, in the music worldWanna make it disappear, tell 'em what they wanna hearIf truth ain't pretty will you all stay with meWill you love me, love me ugly

So tell me, what’s a woman to do-no, scratch thatTell me what’s a human being to with the fact thatWhat gets us ahead just holds us back moreIs a level playing field too much to ask for?And I know that by saying it, I'm bringing attentionTo an issue that might be better left unmentionedBut someone's gotta say it, gotta call out the sceneThe scene is obscene, my sanity's split at the seamsSo to all of ya’ll making this just about ass and titsHere to set the record straight, it don’t gotta be this wayWe can change the game, rearrange the way to fameAnd make a bigger deal about the talent than the faceSee I got little girls watching me, wanting to be like meAnd I wanna show them that they don’t gotta be like meThey can do their own thing, they can rewrite the rulesThey can get respect without acting like foolsSo let's not make it harder than it has to beI’ll keep making music, you stop asking meWhat’s it like to be a girl in the entertainment world'Cause now you know

Seem like everywhere I go, everybody wanna knowWhat’s it like to be a girl, in the music worldWanna make it disappear, tell 'em what they wanna hearIf truth ain't pretty will you all stay with meWill you love me, love me ugly
