I hear you. I don’t think I’ve ever heard this song.

I've heard of it. I was under the impression that Yoko Ono had used the title in one of her "art" exhibitions, and John Lennon picked up on it.

The song — musically it’s not bad (Yoko does not sing on it)

<> Woman Is the _ _ of the World <>

Woman is the _ _ of the world
Yes she is, think about it
Woman is the _ _ of the world
Think about it, do something about it

We make her paint her face and dance
If she won’t be a slave, we say that she don’t love us
If she’s real, we say she’s trying to be a man
While putting her down we pretend that she is above us

Woman is the _ _ of the world, yes she is
If you don’t believe me take a look to the one you’re with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Ah yeah, better scream about it

We make her bear and raise our children
And then we leave her flat for being a fat old mother hen
We tell her home is the only place she should be
Then we complain that she’s too unworldly to be our friend

Woman is the _ _ of the world, yes she is
If you don’t believe me take a look to the one you’re with
Oh woman is the slave to the slaves
Yeah, alright

We insult her everyday on TV
And wonder why she has no guts or confidence
When she’s young we kill her will to be free
While telling her not to be so smart we put her down for being so dumb

Woman is the _ _ of the world, yes she is
If you don’t believe me take a look to the one you’re with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Yes she is, if you believe me, you better scream about it

We make her paint her face and dance
(Repeat 5 times)
