Andy Gill - Listen Up lyrics

What once was a riot is now a slogan It never really talks about us Misappropriation of real anger You never really thought about power Listen up This is the real power So listen up doubters This is the real power So listen up I don't want to hear boys sing about girls In the way that makes them an enigma It's just 'cos they can't talk and say their feelings No wonder we are stuck in the dark This is the real power So listen up doubters This is the real power So listen up Did you hear a word I said (listen up listen up listen up yeah) Wise up boy, time's at it's end (listen up listen up listen up yeah) You had it, you lost it, so do it again You never really thought about us I am a boy, but I'm a feminist It's not a contradiction in terms Listen up This is the real power So listen up doubters This is the real power So listen up D'you know it's offensive to hear you say that You never really thought about us I'm sick of the s**ists, but I'm not scared I'm a boy but at least I'm comfortable This is the real power So listen up doubters This is the real power So listen up Did you hear a word I said (listen up listen up listen up yeah) Wise up boy, time's at it's end (listen up listen up listen up yeah) Because... The power To riot Is anger United
