This Is Not A Feminist Song Lyrics - Ariana Grande

[Verse 1: Kate McKinnon & Aidy Bryant] 

The world, it needs an anthem 

For all of womankind 

The song to fight, the song to right 

The wrongs of all of time 

So we put pen to paper 

And wrote all through the night 

A gorgeous ode to feminism 

Well within our sights

[Pre-Chorus 1: Kate McKinnon and Aidy Bryant] 

But this is pretty nuanced stuff 

And putting it all in one song was tough 

And that's why... 

[Chorus 1: All Women] 

This is not a feminist song 

We tried real hard, but it took too long 

This is not a feminist song 

Cause we were scared we would do it wrong 

We know women need an anthem 

A song to call their own 

But we didn't write that anthem 

We went home

[Verse 2: Cecily Strong & Ariana Grande] 

Every woman has a struggle 

And every struggle's real 

But just try and write a song that captures 

Every woman's deal 

So instead of writing lyrics 

Here's us running in the sand 

And here's a bunch of lens flares 

And an old woman's hands 

[Kate McKinnon & Leslie Jones] 

Not to call a woman old 

Or judge a woman's hands 

We know a woman shouldn't be 

Reduced to just her hands 

[Pre-Chorus 2: Kate McKinnon and Ariana Grande] 

We stepped right into that trap 

It's so hard to navigate this crap 

And that's why... 

[Chorus 2: All Women] 

This is not a feminist song 

So technically it can't be wrong 

This is not a feminist song 

I feel like we've been singing so long 

Our ancestors, they fought for us 

So they deserve a song 

But this is not that song 

So move along 

[Bridge: Aidy Bryant & Sasheer Zamata] 

Now here's some powerful footage 

For a song we did not write 

It's Malala, Maya Angelou 

And Madeleine Albright 

[Kate McKinnon & Ariana Grande] 

And RBG, she taught me 

That women can be strong 

And that women have the right to choose 

To bail on this whole song, oh, yeah 

[All Women] 

And that's why 

This is not a feminist song 

We're just women singing a song 

But doesn't that make it a feminist song? 

I guess this was feminist all along 

[Chorus 3: All Women (Beck Bennett)] 

This is a feminist song 

Tweet it, hashtag #FEMINISTSONG 

[Male Cameo] 

Where are the men in this feminist song? 

[Chrous 3: All Women] 

An excellent point, now move along. 

Cause now it's time for you at home 

to weigh in on this song 

And tell us if we handled it all wrong 

This is a tough and tricky landmine of a song.
