Tonart: G# minor
Verse 1
Em
No answer, on the dance floor,
at this point I just can't hold it
E
Em
It was after the show and
Am
I'm loading out the van
Could've been anywhere,
but in this case,
A woman walks up while I'm packing
C
She says, have you got a minute?
G
Em
I say, yeah, just a second
She said, I did,
G
Em
but I still have a question
Cause some of your remarks
C
Especially the ones about pornography
Em
Now let me understand this
Am
That for women and children this is violent
G
Em
Well I appreciate the
messages you're giving
C
But I happen to dance for a living
G
E
And I wanna know why you
Am
Try to take away that
which should be my choice
G
Em
To seek some meaningful
and gainful employment
C
Even if it means giving dirty
old men enjoyment
Em
G
Now exploitation of anyone is wrong,
I agree
Am
But this doesn't apply to me
D
And my bottom line's fact
C
D
Em
Now sir, can you deal with that?
E
Em
Am
You could already call a situation I wasn't
G
Em
even speculating about her occupation
C
But this debate's insane, and I was on the spot,
G
so I had to try to explain
Em
Am
Her points were intelligent and simple,
and I'm already feeling like
Mr.
G
Guilty
White
I just try to be sensitive,
C
G
don't act like I have any advice to give
Em
D
And let me make it clear, I support you,
Em
C
Em
in a man's world a woman does what she's got to
D
Em
If this is your profession, your sexual expression,
C
Em
your internalized oppression, hey, I don't doubt you
G
Am
My only problem is with a society that
G
forces women into sexual commodity
Em
D
Where a third of all women are known to
C
be sexually abused before they're grown
G
Em
The most raped,
most homeless and addicted
G
Am
If this job were described to you,
G
would you have picked it?
Em
C
Average age 14, hell yes, obscene
Made to look aroused by pain
G
Em
Children being raped
with guns and knives
G#m
G
That ain't speech but the
taking of innocent lives
Em
E
And if you happen to be the exception,
G
Em
overwhelming rule
We parted ways with no resolution
Am
You could go back and forth and
G
Em
never find a solution
D
C
The only point I wanted to make to her is while
G
all the liberals and pornographers
Em
De cide where the line between
G
Em
This is what prostitution really is
A question of censorship, alright
C
G
Of women and children's basic rights
Em
And there's no first
amendment protection
G
Am
For those unable to raise an objection
G
Em
If they want silence,
they'd sound an alarm
C
We'd all know the difference
between speech and harm
Em
You wanna mutilate yourself on film,
that's your choice
Am
G
But can we protect those without a
Em
voice? I never get in your face
C
I just don't want you to end up like
Linda
Lovelace
G
Em
Bottom line is I'm a man
and I listen to you
G
Cause I could never understand
Am
Em
And I haven't got shit to say
C
But if I don't say anything, well,
Em
how long will it be this way?
Am
And if you want to con tinue to believe
D
Am
D
Em
That this is a matter
Am
D
Am
for debate
G
Em
Am
D
I want to tell you how many women will die
Em
Am
D
dur ing the course of the debate.
Em
Nowhere else to hide.
He just wouldn't understand.

Nowhere else to hide.
He just wouldn't understand.
