2. That's right!
the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
The women are smarter, that's right.

Let us put men and women together to see which one is smarter,
Some say men but I say no! The women got the men like a puppet show.

It ain't me, it's the people who say,
The men are leading the women astray.
But I say that the women today
Are smarter than the men in every way.


That's right, the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
The women are smarter that's right.

Little boy sit in the corner and cry,
Big man come and ask him why.
He said "I can't do what the big boys do,"
The man sat down and he cried too.

It ain't me, it's the people who say,
The men are leading the women astray,
But I say that the women today
Are smarter than the men in every way.

That's right, the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
The women are smarter, that's right.

Ever since the world began,
The women been bending the ways of men,
But listen here boys 'cause I got a plan,
Give it up, don't try to understand.

It ain't me, it's the people who say,
The men are leading the women astray.
But I say that the women today
Are smarter than the men in every way.

That's right, the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
That's right, the women are smarter,
The women are smarter, that's right.

:hippie:

I miss Jerry.

10. Nope, I'm a Head, and I've gotta go with Dr. John
with the Dead as a close runner-up, of course.

7. Did this song my sophomore year in choir
Edited on Sun Oct-28-07 07:13 PM by raptor_rider
we walked the aisles during the king dressed in red verse. Shot the audience with water guns with the Kill you dead verse. Just 10 of us in the women's choir. We were a hit with that. No one could top us with that act during the concert. Ah, such memories.
