Lyrics
Yeah!
I wish I was a riot girl, a riot girl punk
Fighting for equality and smearing all the chumps
Across the walls of the local clubs
Fueled by feminism and hard drugs
I like to talk politics, I like to strike fear
In all of the oppressed men that'd stand in my way
I'm not your plaything
I'm a motherfucking queen because who needs a king?
I wish I was a riot girl, feminazi punk
Not your average ordinary day job girl
I won't take your abuse
Quit acting like a bitch and making up excuses
Girl, hanging with Bikini Kill
Female empowerment fills up the room I'm in
A never-ending movement
All of these things make me wish I was a riot girl
I wish I was a riot girl, that would be cool
Taking what you know and breaking all the rules
Screaming in your face 'til your ears get tender
Teaching you a thing about race and gender
I'd like to kick your ass, yeah, that sounds fair
Hiding my brutality behind dyed hair
Men with guitars, they don't know shit
And if they wanna talk shit, they can meet me in the pit
Girl, hanging with Bratmobile
If I can't hit those high notes, l'll just squeal 'em
Into the crowd, it's where I belong
Undercover feminine punk rock called riot girl
Riot girl
Riot girl
