Peggy Seeger - Everyone Knows lyrics

Everyone knows you can't trust a woman Whenever that time rolls around Everyone knows she can go crazy When her main spring gets unwound At that certain time a woman is prone To indisposition and its not unknown For her to be touchy a little bit slow So we can't entrust her with running the show Everyone knows you can't trust a woman She might slip out of gear She vade at the moon She's a walking womb A dozen times a year Low on ego high on id Victim of her hormones her mind's like a sieve You can't trust a person who might flip her lid Every 28 days Everyone knows you can't trust a man Whenever that time rolls around Everyone knows he can go crazy When his mainspring's over wound The needle points north, south, east and west He's never at peace, never at rest Victim of his hormones running too fast Steering the ship with his mind on the mast Everyone knows you can't trust a man Things can slip out of gear He's a walking talking divining rod 10,000 times a year And the power and the glory the whole damn show Everything except that old status quo Can all go to hell when the signal says go Any time of day
