Gender Game - Tamtam

They said he was a danger

He ruined his last name

His daughter she’s a singer

Put her family to shame

What should we do to fix her?

She’s covered in her tears

But people go through so much worse

And that is what she fears

I wont share my face

I wont share my name

In this gender game

If I say my name or I show my face

I should be ashamed

She would take her chances

To follow this one dream

But nothing would be worth it

To hurt her family

She gave up for a second

And realized the pain

She’s never gonna give up

Cause that is not her name

Betty Friedan’s Speech:

There will be a new kind of creativity, not only a new definition of love,

but as we define ourselves there will be a new image of women.

(She She will pray

Pray for that day)

I I will pray

Pray for that day

I wont I wont give up

Don’t don’t give up

I wont I wont give up

Don’t don’t give up

Friedan’s Speech Continued:

And in the joy on every woman’s face, in our affirmation of ourselves as women

we felt this transcendent joy.

What hurts the most is if she were

A boy it would be fine

But doing it when you’re a girl

You really cross the line
