Intro: Em / Em / Em / G F x4
Verse:
Em
Created the false dichotomy,

between Lilith and Mary,
Em
choked out by patriarchy,
G F
and told a lie of genetic prophecy,
Em
Fuck your test to see if we fit the mold,
Em
witches will scream until our stories are told.
Em
born of western cultural fears,
G F
under the boot for ten thousand years.

Chorus:
Em Em Em F Em
They’ll hold your head under water and they’ll call you a bitch,
Em Em F Em
if you can’t hold your breath it’s you’re a fault you’re a witch,
Em Em F G
if you don’t succumb to the cold waters and drown,
F
they’ll smear your name [all over this town.]
Em Em Em F Em

Verse:
Em G F
Be a slut be a prude, no matter you're rude

from fishnets to ties, all I hear are your lies
Em G F
catcalls and grunts, lude gestures the works
Em G F
look at you who gets all the perks
Em G F
there's blood on our hands every 28 days
Em G F
but the pain that you spread sets the whole world ablaze
Em G F
I'm a dyke, I'm a femme, no matter I pick
Em G F
everyday it's my choice, I'll get blood on your dick
