"Hell No" lyrics

"Hell No"

Who says you gotta cross your legs
Who says you gotta shave 'em
Who says you better not count your eggs
Who says you can't just break 'em
Who says you gotta find a man
And then treat him like only a woman can
All I know it's more than I can stand
In these high heeled shoes

And all my life I've been told
To be a good girl, it's what I've bought and sold

Well I say hell no to twice the work and half the pay
I say hell no, it's time I get my own damn say
So come on ladies, makeup the plan
And lipstick it to the man
And say hell no and yes we can

Who says you gotta be the vixen
And the live-in maid
Makin' dinner with all the fixings
As we diet until we fade
Over the hill by 32
Buying wrinkle creams that promise you
Those laughing lines will never do
As we smile on through the rage

All my life I've been told
To be a good girl, it's what I've bought and sold

Well I say hell no to twice the work and half the pay
I say hell no, it's time I get my own damn say
So come on ladies, makeup the plan
And lipstick it to the man
And say hell no and yes we can

All these expectations, aspirations that no woman can hold
Fingernails and hair extensions there's no limits to the lengths we go

Well I say hell no to twice the work and half the pay
I say hell no, it's time we get our own damn say
So come on ladies, makeup the plan
And lipstick it to the man
And say hell no and yes we can
We'll say hell no and yes we can
