Well, Eve's mouth hurts from trying not to laugh
at a joke some scholar made about her being someone's half
It was a joke, a lie, an exaggeration, a fib
and now you all believe I came from his rib
She screams at the top of her lungs, I'm whole!
I'm body, I'm heart, I'm mind, I'm soul

Queen Victoria gave her daughter some advice
as her daughter shook and trembled on her wedding night
Queen Victoria, she said to her daughter,
Baby, lie still and think of the Empire
and her husband, though kind and mild,
never stopped and wondered why she never smiled.

she screams

Little Red Riding Hood was walking down the trail,
she was carrying the goodies, thought, they'll go stale
so she ate them all up and that was that,
then she threw them all up fear of getting fat
'cause even Red Riding Hood reads magazine,
the ones prescribing diets for pre-teens

Now we got Cinderella, she's chillin' at home,
quite content with being alone
she's playing with the mice and singing with the birds,
they're the only ones who ever heard these words
Now I'll get in the damn pumpkin, I'll do it, all right,
I'll weep and lose my slipper, freak out at midnight,
but there's one thing the prince may not like,
it's the fairy god I'm after I'm a dyke.

She screams at the top of her lungs, I'm whole!
I'm body, I'm heart, I'm mind, I'm soul

she screams, she screams she screams
she screams, she screams she screams

We got Snow White, she's a homemaker of sorts,
'cause she cleans and she cooks and she takes care of dwarves,
One day I said Snow White, Go back to school.
She said No, I can't. I'd feel like a fool.
You see it's hard for us women to try and be ourselves
when we spend our whole damn lives taking care of little elves.”

Now, Helen of Troy, they say, launched a thousand ships
with the short of her skirt and the shape of her lips
And one little Bard lay the blame at her face
for the rape of a nation
wrong time, wrong place
Helen simply whispered, History's a test
Look between the lines girls, read beneath the text.

Now we got dear Rapunzel she's chillin' in the tower
waiting for the handsome prince,
she sopped up all her power
Finally one day, the handsome prince in town,
he called up to Rapunzel,
Yo, girl, let it down!
But our dear Rapunzel was no where to be seen
Yes our dear Rapunzel had learned something keen
All this time alone kinda taught me how to cope,
so I shaved my head and made me a rope.

She screams at the top of her lungs, I'm whole!
I'm body, I'm heart, I'm mind, I'm soul
She screams at the top of her lungs, I'm whole!
I'm body, I'm heart, I'm mind, I'm soul
She screams at the top of her lungs, I'm whole!
I'm body, I'm heart, I'm mind, I'm soul
She screams at the top of her lungs, I'm whole!
I'm body, I'm heart, I'm mind, I'm soul

She screams at the top of her lungs,
yeah she screams at the top of her lungs
She screams at the top of her lungs,
yeah she screams at the top of her lungs
