Women's Lib
So you really think it’s better now
Free to learn and earn
What was missed in all the scuffle
Can you really count the cost
Seems to me that all I worked for
Way back in the day is lost
Coz it really wasn’t money
That made me work so much
‘T was a house and spouse and children
But t’ day I’m out o’ touch
Coz it really doesn’t matter
Who earns the right t’ pay
The Nanny and the granny
Who raise the kids t’ day
Double earning raised the bar so high
There’s just no other way
