“Great Question” (3points)

Everyone loves quoting their favorite. I want to see the lyrics that don’t make the girls all throw their hands in the air. I want to see a bunch of lyrics that make folks discuss things. I want to see a bunch of lyrics that are relevant to the question I askedl

Probably “Under My Thumb” by the Rolling Stones (if I listened to rap, alas, there would probably be many more :>(...)

Under my thumb
The girl who once had me down
Under my thumb
The girl who once pushed me around

It’s down to me
The difference in the clothes she wears
Down to me, the change has come,
She’s under my thumb

Ain’t it the truth, babe?

Under my thumb
The squirmin’ dog who’s just had her day
Under my thumb
A girl who has just changed her ways

It’s down to me, yes it is
The way she does just what she’s told
Down to me, the change has come
She’s under my thumb
Ah, ah, say it’s alright

Under my thumb
A Siamese cat of a girl
Under my thumb
She’s the sweetest, hmmm, pet in the world

Whatever that song was by Eminem in which he talks about taking the mother of his child and strapping her in his trunk after killing her and then dumping her somewhere…that comes to mind first. Tori Amos covered it.

This covers the topic quite nicely.

@ladymia69

Excellent examples! lol

Yeah, the 100’s of rap songs that say things like…. kick the bitch in a ditch, choke the bitch, pop a cap in the bitch….

Ho hum…I can’t imagine the agony of perfecting those lyrics, poor hard working lyricist.

Dictionary….oh wow… @crisw Came up with the only one I would have known when I was into music as a kid…..it’s easy to find examples today, not so easy then, but I’ll keep thinking about it…

@crisw – Social Distortion does a cover of that song and makes it so sexy ;)

I can’t think of anything right now, but I’ll be back if I do!

Incredibly NSFW and offensive, but hey, you axed for it!
Listen little girl it´s near the hour
Come with me and take golden shower
Listen little slut, do as you´re told
Come with daddy for me to pour the gold
Golden shower, it´s getting near the hour
For a golden shower,
I´ve got the righteous power
All through my excrements you shall roam
Open your mouth and taste the foam
Bend up and smell my anal vapor
Your face is my toilet paper
-“Golden Shower” by The Mentors
Send in the flags!

@Blackberry Ben Folds’ satirical cover of that song is one of the greatest things ever.

@etignotasanimum already said the first thing that came into my mind when I read this question. That Helen Keller line is a real winner.

Might as well toss some religion into the mix.

John Lennon, as much as I admire him, wrote a lot of early Beatles songs with this idea of owning women and being pissed off if they didn’t what he wanted when he wanted them to do it. Run For Your Life‘s are the worst:

Well, I’d rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man
You better keep your head, little girl
Or I won’t know where I am

You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man,
That’s the end, little girl

Well, I know that I’m a wicked guy
And I was born with a jealous mind
And I can’t spend my whole life
Trying just to make you toe the line

You better run for your life if you can, little girl
Hide your head in the sand, little girl
Catch you with another man,
That’s the end, little girl

Let this be a sermon
I mean everything I’ve said
Baby, I’m determined
And I’d rather see you dead

He had some nerve, huh? He didn’t even want Cynthia and only married her because he’d drunkenly gotten her pregnant and their families forced him to get married. I think he was the first to admit what a jackass he was when it came to women from 1957–1975.

Dutchess_III's avatar

Wow @aprilsimnel Is that a song I’d know if I heard it?

josie's avatar

It’s true, you were a virgin until you met me
I was the first to make you hot and wetty-wetty
You tell your parents that we’re goin’ out
Never to the movies, just straight to my house
You said it yourself, you like it like I do
Put your lips on my dick, and suck my asshole too

Ke$ha’s song…Cannibal has the most awkward lyrics I’ve ever heard in my life. Things such as “Now that I’m famous, you’re up my anus” and “Be too sweet, you’ll be a goner, yeah I’ll pull a Jeffery Dahmer” sound all seven kinds of retarded.

Blondesjon's avatar

@aprilsimnel . . . I don’t find that song misogynistic. I feel as though the lyrics could work regardless of the gender applied to them.

one of my fabs btw. because it does work universally . . .

@woodcutter . . . you know he meant that ironically, right?

josie's avatar

@woodcutter I wasn’t there, but I think that was supposed to be protest song.

woodcutter's avatar

@Blondesjon Yeah but I think it was over the top and the song did basically suck. Not one of his good works

aprilsimnel's avatar

@josie – re: the lyrics you’ve posted, I’ve never heard that song, thank goodness. I’ve always been more of a backpacker type when it comes to hip-hop, so 2 Live Crew or anything of that ilk wouldn’t be on my radar at all.

@ariah

I must be missing something; perhaps I don’t understand the lyrics- how is this song misogynistic?

weeveeship's avatar

@ariah I think that song is about suicide. Hence, “You’re all by yourself but you’re not alone.”

I was only 13 when I heard Alice Cooper’s Only Women Bleed. It pissed me off then and it pisses me off now.

Man’s got his woman to take his seed
He’s got the power – oh
She’s got the need
She spends her life through pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner or anything she can
She cries alone at night too often
And I smoke and drink and don’t come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Man makes your hair gray
I’m your life’s mistake
All you’re really lookin’ for is an even break
I lie right at her
You know she hates this game
I slap her once in a while and she lives and loves in pain
She cries alone at night too often
I smoke and drink and don’t come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Black eyes all of the time
Don’t spend a dime
Clean up this grime
And you there down on your knees begging me please come
Watch me bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed

“Is that a song I’d know if I heard it?”

It’s on the Beatles ‘Rubber Soul’ album.

phoebusg's avatar

I can’t think of a Misogynistic one – most are sexist. Some of the above are the former, but most are the latter. As far as sexual tastes and fetishes – plenty out there. Some women actually like actions depicted above, others don’t. It’s a matter of taste. In any case there seems to be “demand” for such material.

Blackberry's avatar

@Mariah That was hilarious :)

Ladymia69's avatar

@Blackberry I think that is @ariah , not @Mariah .

Edit – Nevermind, just realized that both of them were in this post! I was confused by that when I first saw @ariah, so I thought maybe you were confused also…but obviously, I am alone in my confusion here.

@ladymia69 It’s all good lol.
