[Get Well Soon, Kat Frankie - Nightjogging lyrics]
Should she be glad about how far
We've come this day and age?
Should she save the money for a late
Cab ride home with her wage?
Should she bear the old fart explaining
The world and it's way?
Should she be blamed because she dressed
As she liked that day?
Should they be selling pepper spray
At every goddamn shop?
Should they keep up the thread? It's
The strangers in a mob
Should limitations be so old that
They are forgotten about?
Should they spread the blame? The
Whore or the boy scout?
Going nightjogging
In the wrong neighbourhood
Although mama told me that I never should
Going nightjogging in the wrong part of town
Just try and touch me you're going down
He should know it's C19H28O2
That's poisoning the wells
He should know the lethal end of
All these locker room tales
He should bear the whistle that he
Blows when he wants to grope
He should admit there are two
Different worlds on this globe
We should see no boy's born a man
It is what he becomes
We should not scare our daughters
We must teach our sons
We should know, violence has
No race, no religion, no class
But we should not deny what gender it has
Going nightjogging
In the wrong neighbourhood
Although mama told me that I never should
Going nightjogging in the wrong part of town
Just try and touch me you're going down
And boys won't be boys
Yes, boys won't be boys won't be boys
Boys won't be boys
We've come this day and age?
Should she save the money for a late
Cab ride home with her wage?
Should she bear the old fart explaining
The world and it's way?
Should she be blamed because she dressed
As she liked that day?
Should they be selling pepper spray
At every goddamn shop?
Should they keep up the thread? It's
The strangers in a mob
Should limitations be so old that
They are forgotten about?
Should they spread the blame? The
Whore or the boy scout?
Going nightjogging
In the wrong neighbourhood
Although mama told me that I never should
Going nightjogging in the wrong part of town
Just try and touch me you're going down
He should know it's C19H28O2
That's poisoning the wells
He should know the lethal end of
All these locker room tales
He should bear the whistle that he
Blows when he wants to grope
He should admit there are two
Different worlds on this globe
We should see no boy's born a man
It is what he becomes
We should not scare our daughters
We must teach our sons
We should know, violence has
No race, no religion, no class
But we should not deny what gender it has
Going nightjogging
In the wrong neighbourhood
Although mama told me that I never should
Going nightjogging in the wrong part of town
Just try and touch me you're going down
And boys won't be boys
Yes, boys won't be boys won't be boys
Boys won't be boys
