Burning bras, lipstick on our faces
We are the women that men have suffocated since the snake enticed her to bite the apple
We are the women who you have been warned about
With bruises beneath our knees
So much elbow grease
We are the women who raised the flag before it flew
Bloody knuckles, beer breath
Building the tables at which our babies eat
We are the women you’d never think we could be
