"Angry Woman" lyrics
"Angry Woman"
Hey, baby, why don't you smile?
You got such a pretty face
(I know, I know, I know oh)
I'm only here for a while
I want more than a taste
(I know, I know, I know oh)
I'm about to set my world on fire
(Oh, oh, oh well)
I smashed my glass on the bar
Guess I got carried away
(Oh well)
You told me
Nobody likes an angry woman
I always say the things I shouldn't
Oh what a shame my tongue's not tied
You can do whatever you want
I'll do whatever I like
You think you're so mature
You want the party to stop
(I know, I know, I know oh)
Lately you're eating your words
You said my sound wasn't pop
(Enough, enough, for you)
Well, I'm about to set your world on fire
This song's not even about you
Bet you'll think that it was
(But it's not)
OoooAAAHHH...
You told me
Nobody likes an angry woman
I always say the things I shouldn't
Oh what a shame my tongue's not tied
You can do whatever you want
I'll do whatever I like
Thank you very much for the let-down
Used to want your love but it ran out
Used to give a fuck but I don't now
But I don't now
But I don't now
You can do whatever you want
I'll do whatever I like

"'Angry Woman' is my enough-is-enough record," explained Ashe. "There's always been this sense that as a woman in this world I've needed to 'behave' and 'play nice,' cutting off all this power and confidence that as women we should be demonstrating on a daily basis. 'Angry Woman,' in many ways, is about being fed up with abuse of power and that it sometimes takes a little righteous anger to make a change. Especially in today's climate, I want to see women getting a little angry, because we should be."
Ashe first performed "Angry Woman" at the first concert of her sold-out Fault Line Tour in Chicago at the beginning of May 2022. The song and its
music video were published on the 22nd of June, 2022. The visual was inspired by Yoko Ono's "cut piece" first demonstrated in 1964.
"I felt Yoko One's cut-piece performance was very empowering and related to the song I wrote and how it feels to be a woman in America in 2022," said Ashe.
"I was very inspired and wanted to pay homage to it in the 'Angry Woman' video."
