Pay Gap

Honey, I work so hard for my money

And I leave my babies at home

Breaking my back trying to bring home a check

And working my fingers to the bone

At the end of the day, it feels like a game

One I was born to lose

This institution, a dead revolution

Is giving young women abuse

Pay gap, pay gap

Why don't you do the math?

Pay gap, pay gap

Ripping my dollars in half

It's not that I'm asking for more than I'm owed

And I don't think I'm better than you

You say that we live in the land of the free

Well, sometimes that bell don't ring true

It's been that way with no equal pay

And I want to know when it will be fixed

Women do work and get treated like slaves

Since 1776

Pay gap, pay gap

Don't give me that feminism crap

Pay gap, pay gap

Ripping my dollars in half

No matter your religion, no matter your race

No matter your orientation

No matter your creed and no matter your taste

No matter your denomination

We are all the same in the eyes of God

But in the eyes of rich white men

No more than a maid to be owned like a dog

A second-class citizen

Pay gap, pay gap

Why don't you do the math?

Pay gap, pay gap

Ripping my dollars in half
