Sleater-kinney - No.1 Must Have lyrics

Bearer of the flag from the beginning

Now who would have believed this riot girl's a cynic

But they took our ideas to their marketing stores

And now I'm spending all my days at girlpower.com

Trying to buy back a little piece of me

(Everywhere you go they say "Hello,

Weren't you the one that sold your soul ?"

Every time you leave the say "Oh no,

Why did you ever let us go ?")

And I think that I sometimes might have wished

For something more than to be a size six

But now my inspiration rests

In-between my beauty magazines and my credit card bills

I've been crawling up so long

On your stairway to heaven

And now I no longer believe that I wanna get in

And will there always be concerts where

Women are raped

Watch me make up my mind instead of my face

The number one must have

Is that we are safe

(Everywhere you go teenage

Is the rage

Inside your pants

And on the front page

Everywhere you go it's die or be born

If you can't decide then

It's your own war)

No more, No more, No more

And for all the ladies out there I wish

We could write more than the next marketing bid

Culture is what we make it, Yes it is

Now is the time, now is the time, now is the time

To invent, invent, invent, invent, invent, invent...
