Woman Down Lyrics - Alanis Morissette

First woman down was your mother 

She did condone how you behave 

All you could see was your father 

His disrespect was in her face 

Next woman down was your sister 

Her silence did corroborate 

She took her cues from the climate 

And never knew another way 

Who do you take me for 

Calling all woman haters 

We've lowered the bar on the 

Behavior that we will take come on now 

Calling all lady haters 

Why must you vilify us 

Are you willing to clean the slate woman down 

Woman down, oh 

Next woman down was your lover 

She takes your spite at value face 

Even her hair length and color 

Gives you the impulse to repeat 

Who do you take me for 

Calling all woman haters 

We've lowered the bar on the 

Behavior that we will take come on now 

Calling all lady haters 

Why must you vilify us 

Are you willing to clean the slate woman down 

Woman down, woman down, oh 

Next woman down is your daughter 

A stranger to being debased 

She has a new lease and limit 

On the abuse she'll tolerate 

Who do you take me for 

Calling all woman haters 

We've lowered the bar on the 

Behavior that we will take come on now 

Calling all lady haters 

Why must you vilify us 

Are you willing to clean the slate woman down 

Woman down
